Not just as in Lemmy, but as in general.
Websites wherever possible.
I will fight the dark patterns trying to manipulate me into using the app also.
If I cannot do anything without the app I will not use said service.
Most of the time it’s the same thing.
I typically use apps if it’s something I’ll want to open on my own, and website for things I only ever open if I’m sent a link to itI usually just use the website in a mobile browser as I generally avoid websites that require an app. It’s an unnecessary waste of space when the website could just work in a mobile browser but some developers, whether it’s because of incompetence or it’s actually intentional, either limit what features are available in mobile browsers or just make the website not work at all.
I hate using apps for things that could be websites, to the point that I don’t use certain kinds of services that are app-only (e.g. e-scooter rentals).
Desktop websites. Mobile sites are just garbage.
Hmm, a smartphone screen is quite small to use a desktop site comfortably.
I still need to use Reddit for one particular subreddit and more I’m annoyed the mobile web version has been taken away.
