(timestamp-link) iPad Pro M4 Hands on - Why I just bought it.
Review from a top YT reviewer, Mrwhosetheboss. How do you guys feel about it?
Nah, I’m good. I’m fine with services being limited to what information they can convince my browser to give them, rather than what they can convince my phone to give them. Or try and convince me to give them permission to access.
Yeah, no. I’d rather use a clunky website in a browser then installing dozens of specific apps.
website.
I wonder why pwas never became more popular. You can offer your service for everyone, without the need to install anything, while letting people install it as an app, if they want.
agree here. Im guessing because of the massive control apps give the places. I can no script my browser.
Voyager for Lemmy started as a progressive web app. But due to operating system limitations people had the desire to make it an actual app app.
I hate apps. I prefer to use a website instead of the app whenever I can.
In my experience, most “apps” are just the website with some features and zoom disabled, wrapped in electron.
So I prefer the browser version, where I have all my privacy enhancing plugins.
