Most information based apps don’t need to be natively integrated. Take the Voyager client for example. It behaves almost exactly like the native version of the app.
Most users wouldn’t even notice a difference, if well implemented.
App developers need to abandon these proprietary platforms and switch to open ones like the web. That’s the only way to end this fuckery.

The “value add” for mobile apps is mainly that they enable more analytics collection without the users having the ability to control it through ad blockers. There are vanishingly few cases where the UX is superior compared to a well-implemented web app.

Voyager is a fantastic example. I forget that it is a PWA all the time.
Voyager is a web site???
Basically, yeah.
