Waku: The Minimalist React Framework with Server Components

So I need to have as many apps as the number of websites I visit in a month? Hacker news, Reddit, NY Times, other news sites, BoingBoing, my kids' school, each restaurant, each airline I might ever book, Craigslist, etc etc etc?

That's ridiculous. Browsers exist for a reason.

I agree, and yet a lot of users seem to expect apps. To them, if you only have a web site you look unprofessional. Even though we all know perfectly well that most apps are repackaged web sites.

I don't think I have ever felt that only a website feels unprofessional. Anecdotal, but still. A well built, well designed, responsive site is all I need to know that someone is on top of it.

I'd rather see them do 1 method very well than 2 methods haphazardly

Most of those sites operate as apps, and browsers have mostly become an OS. So yes, that does fit my perspective.

Many of those websites don't even need to exist, as pure informational portals. They should just be boards in a (indeally decentralized, uniform) network of news source
