While I 100% agree with this, I also think this isn't some sort of failing or "oops didn't think of that!" type mistake -- this behavior is fully on purpose. T

While I 100% agree with this, I also think this isn't some sort of failing or "oops didn't think of that!" type mistake -- this behavior is fully on purpose. They want the user to be worn down until they just accept the notifications or whatever else or even just accidentally click YES on one of the recurrent pop ups. It is beyond infuriating the number of times a google search misclick on my phone leads me to the app store opening the page for the google app. Same with a reddit page. They know what they're doing and they don't care. And even then you have to manually close that giant banner that covers half your screen to dismiss the nag to download the app-- when the web version works perfectly fine! Alright time to stop ranting and get back to work :)
