@Random9 because not everyone wants to run everything directly in the browser
"no reason" is silly

@gamingonlinux if you use web version, updating is refreshing the web page. There is no reason to use an app tbh

@autisticgandalf @gamingonlinux that is not true. Web version works better for me. And it's more private, as it's sandboxed inside a browser, without access to my system.

@gamingonlinux you can use KDE's web page as an app feature. I use it for things like that. Superior experience compared to bad native apps

@autisticgandalf @gamingonlinux if it's incontinent, that's because it's designed that way, to force you to use the app. The app can get more data about you and your system, for them to sell it to advertisers.
That's why every web page now has an app.
And that's why web versions are getting worse and worse.In conversation permalink -
