@jrm4 @obsolescentsapien @drazraeltod @pluralistic signal, my music app, my maps app, my RSS reader, my mastodon client, my calculator, my YouTube client (NewPipe), my bank app, my library audiobook app, my mail app, my calendar app, the eBay app, the etsy app, the venmo app. All of these offer significantly better experiences in the app than equivalents online. Because as I've said repeatedly, web technology is simply a stock that is not designed for making applications and so whenever you try to make applications with it the interface is just significantly more janky and jarring and awkward and bad in comparison to an actual native app not to mention it's slower and you have to redownload the entire web app every time you visit it or it stored in cash which means it takes up just as much space as a native app since the average modern Progressive web app is about the same size as the average modern native application
