At the laziest level an app stores my login info.

So does a mobile browser?

Maybe handling multiple accounts is easier with an app but that's beyond basic use

[-] Nurgle@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Not if your browser is set to incognito and/or you close the tab.

If someone explaining why they use an app instead of a website (in a literal comment thread about why people would prefer an app to the mobile site) triggers you in such a way that your only response is to make up an irate strawman… it might be time to log off, step outside and practice interacting with people like an functioning adult.

But they were talking about setting their browser to incognito and/or closing their tab, both things which an app just don't have. Nevermind that closing a tab does not log you out of your account, both things are things that he just could... not do and are not entirely normal to do when using a browser, so he did actually go out of the way to inconvenience himself in the case of the browser, it is not a strawman.

Also, I'm not triggered. Idk how you arrived at that point. You're the one calling my statement irate and telling me to go outside and stuff. I was just being calm and slightly making fun of the comment.

The question was, why use an app. Answer was, because some people keep their browser in permanent incognito. Nobody was annoyed or irritated, it's a completely valid answer why people prefer to do something that way for their reason. Just take the answer and move on.

I'm beginning to get irritated.

I'll move on.
