The main downside to many mobile web sites is the desperate plea to use the app you have to dismiss every time. I feel sorry for the devs who build a great mobile version only to be forced to put a stupid "$SITE is better in the app" banner on it.

There’s also companies which seemed to break their Web experience specifically to drive people into the app. Credit Karma hasn’t worked on a browser on mobile or desktop for me in years. But the app version always works.

I guess it’s my fault for trying to use an Intuit product to begin with when I already know they’re evil.

Does Credit Karma's app from last month work too?

This is a reason I also like the web is that after the page loads I can just do stuff instead of getting kicked out to have to update the app ... Or even having to re-log in ...

Fucking Menards and home Depot on mobile are two of the worst websites that exist. They're slow and full of bugs.

Desktop is fine. Mobile sucks. I have to imagine it's intentional to push mobile users towards the app.

Or feature limit the mobile web version.

In both cases, requesting the desktop version (i.e. using a non-mobile user-agent string) will give you back the normal, full-fat web version.

uBlock can stop those, if your device is allowed to have it.

Shoutout to Firefox for Android for being the only mobile browser of note that lets you use uBlock Origin

[Dweller1622]

uBlock Origin Lite is available for Safari on mobile, though that's not exactly the same extension. Orion supports standard uBlock Origin on mobile, but then that's not a browser "of note."

You win this round!

Edge does as well.

Really? I thought it was a Chromium wrapper and subject to the same nerfing done to it and Chrome.

[depressedpanda]

How? Do I need to configure something in uBlock Origin? If I go to, e.g., Reddit I still see the annoying "Open app" button.

Should be in one of the "annoyances" subscriptions.

My guess would be one of those two:

* AdGuard – Mobile App Banners under AdGuard

* EasyList – Notifications under EasyList
