I think you can use the web version

I think the "desktop app" is also just the web version. So yeah.

i think its kinda like discord, where the desktop app is just the web app, except it has more stuff for no reason("no reason" meaning they can collect more info about ur pc)

I mean, just go from browser. Don't use the app.

A lot of apps are doing that these days. I don't really like it.

They don't want you to have as much control as a browser, a browser that sandboxes your private data and limit how much they can annoy you

Also they only have to develop one version and don't need to worry about hardware and OS differences. But then the app version is never specialised, or else the browser version gets bloated up with a bunch of unnecessary features.
