Even 10years ago, I considered having an app over around 40mb to be huge, but now 60mb is kind of the norm
Isn't it about a web engine being roughly 60MB? π
Do you mean by that that many apps are just website wrappers? Or did I get it wrong?
Indeed many apps tend to be that, at least many of my apps are open source at least and they tend not to have trackers and other bloatπ
I think I was thinking about desktop apps when I answered, but I feel out of context now π¬
Ohhh, I was talking about android appsπ
Hmm, I havent checked much how big computer applications are on average
