Technology

Hey dude, just wanted to say that I learned a little bit from you today. Thanks for sharing on here.

I remember Apple famously disallowing any kind of "Write Once, Run Anywhere" platform tech at the dawn of iOS, ATVos and iPad OS, quite openly trying to fuck with Adobe's and Sun's shit.

But using apps to avoid needing all of the traffic and rendering capabilities for modern websites was key in its early days and I remember even 10 years ago recommending to clients and customers that were stuck with awful internet connections or underpowered devices, to try using the apps instead of the websites for things.

Nowadays, I only want to visit so many corpo resources strictly through a browser and fighting tooth and nail to avoid ever letting their apps on my phones. I would literally fire a bank for not having a functional Web page to do what I need done , especially since I probably can't be on vanilla android for much longer the way things are going and too many secure apps require Google Play services for their circle of trust.
