We’re not normies, so take that with a grain of salt. Here’s mine: apps have access to significantly expanded capabilities which has privacy implications. If I can use the browser for a given app, I do it. Amazon for example.

I always avoid apps if I can.

But yeah, that comment is a bit disconnected to majority of the population.

Personally I'll only install FOSS apps on my phone and I go out of my way to actively discourage (to varying degrees of success) my relatives from installing arbitrary junk that they surely don't need on their phones.

lol I was going to say this too! I think the inverse is true: nobody wants to install a PWA

I have a handful of 3rd party apps on my phone and none on my computer. Prefer to just use browser.

Yeah that’s a weird comment. I don’t want a PWA. I want a normal app. Users want apps.

If it requires Play Store, I will only put it on my work phone.
