Literally no one is installing an app for every web page they use.

The kind of web pages that people install as apps are made significantly worst by amp - like reddit is unuseable monstrosity with amp.

I'm not sure what the New York Times app would give me that AMP wouldn't.

It’s actually navigable, supports offline viewing, and isn’t a weird, messed up approximation of a real webpage the way AMP is.

Better navigation and offline viewing might make sense if I really want to read the New York Times specifically, but that probably isn't the case if I'm getting there by way of a search engine.

You complained about people using apps instead of web. Then you said "I'm not sure what the New York Times app would give me that AMP wouldn't"

And when people answered with tangible good reasons to use app instead of web ... you move goalposts.

OK, I can see what it might give you. Nevertheless I do not want to install apps for any but my most frequently visited Web sites.
