Why so many of you are looking for a mobile app? (feddit.it)

I get that, if things are not changed on the Apple side, websites can't have proper notification so you are forced to have an app but on android PWA (Progressive Web Apps - basically websites on steroids) are a real thing and you can just "install" the lemmy website of your instance and avoid any bloated app. Are you looking for an app with some feature missing from the website? Are you just unaware of the possibility of installing the website itself? I don't want to sound rude (English isn't my first language) but I don't get what to me looks like an obsession to have a bloated app installed on your phone

I can’t login on the web, I get a error warning 9 out of 10 times, but Mlem gives me access. But it’s still early beta and I miss a ton of features; like a can’t find a community others than the ones I already have signed up to. Back to your question, the web just seems clonked and refreshes itself and so on - coming from Apollo it’s kind of meh.
