Why the hell is every app and program out there just being prude removed and making porn harder to access?

      An adjacent question that you brought to mind, why are people so intent on using “apps” for everything. It feels as if browsers have been all but forgotten despite filling the same role, but often better.

        On the one hand you’re right, but on the other I feel like a lot of stuff has become browser based (like text editors, code editors, even music editors and perhaps video editors someday), all thanks to Web Assembly and how complex a lot of web apps have become.

        It feels like people use everyday stuff through apps, and more complex stuff through browsers nowadays. Roles may slowly invert at some point if it keeps going this way.

        Because a lot of websites still look and function really bad on mobile devices, and a lot of people nowadays only have mobile devices.

          Hard disagree. Having everything in one browser app and switching between tabs is much faster than switching apps. If it’s something that does more heavy lifting like a game or file browser or something sure it makes sense to have an app but just consuming content can be done in a browser just as easily.

          I can’t even figure out how to open an app on my computer. I can do it on my phone, but the keyboard and screen on there is tiny.
