    Why the fuck would anybody install an APP to use a website?

    (Puts on clown face) “Sure, I’ll install this program on my pocket computer from the Urban Dictionary to save the time it would take me to open a web browser and type in the URL of it, all it costs is me giving direct access to my stored personal data and real-time activities”

      The state of people blindly using apps for everything is atrocious.

      “But it saves me a 1USD on my fast food burger!”

        Fast food charges you around double if you don’t use the app. I think it’s mostly about tiered pricing. They want the money from those willing to pay $15 for a burger AND they still want the money from people who won’t pay more than $10. This way they get both.

          In the US, I guess? Not where I come from

            In Italy it’s also like this

            You literally pay double the price if you order without using the coupons found in the app for McDonald’s, Burger King and KFC
