   Why is writing the word "program" so fucking difficult? I don't get it.

     You mean instead of "app" ... I mean, blame Apple?

     I'm more use to websites being called "Platforms" ... which annoys me to no end. It's a very large website, yes, but it's still just a website. People call fucking Netflix a "platform." 🙃

     @Zergling_man @djsumdog

     Websites are often called "apps" when there are apps for them. ("People in this app...". :picardfacepalm: So damn cumbersome to explain such people why that's a fractal misconception.)

     I've never even heard of Wattpad. Looking at the page:

     Home to 97 million people¹ who spend over 26 billion minutes a month engaged in original stories, Wattpad has democratized storytelling for a new generation of diverse Gen Z writers and their fans

     ...so ... it's a big slash fiction/porn story site? :blobcatupsidedown:

     @domodak @djsumdog >Wattpad
     My strongest memory of that is seeing some guy spamming tenor gifs and someone saying "why is tenor always such cancer", and I didn't really understand.
     Then it got integrated into dicksore and I understood within the hour.

     One occasion where I've witnessed "The people in this app" was while lurking on Reddit.
     
     (Could have been a Wattpad immigrant, but I'm not sure.)

     @domodak @djsumdog I've taken to using "service" extensively to refer to things that may or may not be accessed via the web.
     I hadn't actually noticed it was in this image until I checked just now.
