I have an adjacent vent and that is I hate how companies put so little effort into the UX of their mobile web pages. Privacy concerns aside, I would still prefer not to have 100 apps on my phone and just use web pages; but my bank's web page suuuuucks and so well, I have the app.
I swear this is purposeful for a lot of websites; they make the mobile site run terribly to push people onto the app instead, presumably because they can collect more data that way.
Yeah, fair enough. I just deal with the bad user experience of the mobile website because I absolutely refuse to use the app.
I don't care. I will not put that spyware on my device.
Your vent was good and justified
