Calling websites "apps" was a psyop. $AAPL tricked you into thinking native programs are better than sites and they aren't.

I fucking hate all the new CSS units, particularly the viewport units. https://web.dev/blog/viewport-units

This is all $AAPL's fault. Just like touch events; they went and built whatever worked for them and their garbage computers without consulting standards bodies, and we end up stuck with their shitty decisions.

I thought I saw somewhere that this story was basically way overblown to move the stock price? (As are so many stories.)
