Similarly I hate that everything requires an app when a webpage works absolutely fine.
Nothing more infuriating than sites that have a fully (or half) working mobile version but then force you to use the app (stars eyes at reddit)
Recently got a notification when visiting m.facebook.com in a Firefox based browser that my browser will soon be unsupported on Facebook and I should download the Facebook Lite app. I haven't had the FB app installed for over a decade and for much of that, I've been using the version designed for dumb(ish)phones that hasn't had the experience enshittified the same as the full mobile site, the desktop site or the app. You can actually still see a list of your friends, potentially even in alphabetical order. Even the feed seems to still show real stories from your friends and not all the other crud. If the simple mobile site goes away, I will probably stop using FB except checking once a month to see if far away friends and family sent something. In no case will I install the app. It's bad enough that I have an account there at all.
