I've never really thought of this as a strong benefit before but this seems like a good argument for app development in 2025.
Started my career as a web developer and always have a soft spot for it but from a hobby developer standpoint hosting and deploying a site feels like an uphill battle with little upside.
Theres a lot to not like about app development but after you get approval for your app it's pretty hands off.
Heck on android you can just distribute the raw APK on a Google drive. Or just keep the app locally for yourself.
I probably have about 20 self made apps on my phone and they each give me a bit of happiness.

- 3vidence 2y agoIt's really a tradeoff. Keep up with platform updates or constantly deal with the afformentioned crawlers and hugs of death.
