The second requirement bullet point is solid, but I think it goes to far. Obviously user onboarding is a huge issue for new paradigms, and simplicity is paramount. But I think it's wrong to suggest that non-browser clients are not the way forward. Look at Whatsapp or Signal.

If Gurlic employs Clean Architecture, delivering its community to users through a web app or non-browser client is a decision that should be deferred or designed such that you could switch without rewriting most code.

But jesus I hate that book.
