People get on me all the time about not installing programs on my computer. I run everything in the browser, if I can. Partly so I can kill it properly without it misbehaving, and partly because I don't trust their software at all. Zoom, Slack, Gmail, etc-- if I can run it in the browser, then that's the only way I'll run it.

Same for me on mobile. I don’t install the Amazon app I just use the browser where I can limit tracking and only log in when actually buying something.
