Re: Painful lessons

Yes, I understand. I'm just stating a counterargument. I consider real apps to be better than webpage apps. Aside from the fact that real apps tend to look and work better, if you're using a firewall then real apps are safer, because you can make firewall rules on a per-app basis. Since my standard practice is to block all apps from connecting to the internet, it generally doesn't matter what data they collect.

Speed of updates means nothing to me.

But my use case is not everyone's use case.
