Yeah, I was being a bit negative. I&#x27;m actually not opposed to the idea of web apps (although I think that the sole virtue of HTML+CSS+JavaScript is that it exists): they really can be useful, and there&#x27;s no good alternative (which is truly sad).<p>What annoys me to no end is &#x27;apps&#x27; which are really just content browsers. I already have a content browser: it&#x27;s called…a browser. There are well-defined semantics about how it retrieves content (resources). It works on the command line, within emacs, in a TTY, in a GUI and on my phone. It can be configured to run no untrusted code. It&#x27;s really, really powerful.
