I'm gonna be honest with ya'll, even before all this 3rd party app stuff I never understood why anyone would use an app to view a fucking website. It's like thinking "yes, let me seek and purposely download spyware on my phone to have a worse user experience and see the same thing I can see in my browser without ads"

Some companies makes their apps a lot better than their website and you often get more and better features from a mobile users point of view. But I also prefer the browser because I don't want to fill my phone with apps I use only once a week or less and I can use adblocker. But it is pretty nice to be able to jump between apps instead of jumping between tabs. I have a lot of tabs open instead of downloading their app and also stuff I want to remember or pages I use often. I try to clean it up but I always have an infinity icon instead of a number for my tabs ๐Ÿ˜‚ I tried using bookmarks but it is easier to find the right page as a tab (big thumbnail)
