> It’s telling to me that the biggest tech apps of the last 2 years all ran web/desktop first.

What are the two apps that you are referring to? No snark just curious. Because the only thing I can think of are video calls or social media (which are arguably older than two years).

ChatGPT, Stable Diffusion. Both web/terminal first.

Think 5-8 years ago at least one of them would have been app first.

You already have native chatgpt app by openai. Also Microsoft have integration on native edge browser, SwiftKey keyboard and Bing app.

There are also many mobile stable diffusion apps and even native mobile discord app which is UI for midjourney

And since all those app require a lot of typing or prompt tweaking they where better suited for desktop first
