Why are these apps being distributed on app stores
Why are these apps not PWAs with an app store deployment wrapper???
The same reason they don't sell people a live chicken in the grocery store. The general public wouldn't know what to do with it.
Every Lemming be like "what app do you use" meanwhile I'm like "...app? 👀"

(I don't keep stuff logged-in on my phone, incase a cop grabs it)
"what app do you use"
"Uhhhhh Firefox?"
Web wrapped websites are not allowed on either app store btw.
