>implying it hasn't taken over mobile too
I'm pretty sure most mobile apps are just using browser renderers, but that's hard to prove.

a couple factors:
- deliberate sabotage by mobile os makers to push devs and users onto their app stores where they could take a cut of profits
- poorer performance of mobile devices makes performance differences between web and "native" (webviews mostly) more noticable
- on desktop users are used to navigating to webpages, whereas on mobile they expect to be able to tap an icon on their homescreen (and don't know how to set bookmarks)

Every fast food app does and so do most banks. So very likely.

Mobile apps are literally chrome without the ability to change the url.

you are confusing react native with react.
react native like the name says uses native widgets instead of a webview

it's still webview

wrong.
react native uses native ViewGroup on anroid and native UIView on ios -- not webview.

>With React Native, you can invoke these views with JavaScript using React components. At runtime, React Native creates the corresponding Android and iOS views for those components.

Web did take over mobile at first, but jailbreakers wanted "native" so the walled garden was put in place.

I used Cydia before the official App Store came out.

mobile browsers suck
even if the web version and the "app" version are identical, like even if the app version is just a webview of the web version, the app version will be favored just because it's 1. easier to open it up (tap icon on home screen vs. open browser and type url with clunky inaccurate touch keyboard) and 2. you don't have the mobile browser's oversized UI popping up and stealing a quarter of your screen every time you scroll the wrong direction

these aren't problems on desktop because you usually have your browser open already anyway and the browser's UI is generally static and out of the way

a lot of phone apps use react native.
Basically you write Javascript/Typescript+React -> Gets compiled to the native platform.
This has also started happening with desktop apps.

unless shortcuts magically make the browser's UI less retarded and intrusive i don't see why that changes anything

Because on the web the user is in control of everything that runs on the client, and can modify and extend functionality with plugins to block advertisements, preserve privacy, etc.

Section 1201 of the Digital Millenium Copyright Act makes it a felony to bypass a digital lock (which you have to do to modify a mobile application), punishable by either a 5 year prison sentence or a $500,000 fine for a first offence.

An app is just a website that's been wrapped in the right kind of intellectual property law to make it a crime for you to defend yourself while using it.

This is why every major tech platform wants to shunt you into their app when accessed from a browser on mobile, in some cases even forbidding use from a mobile browser.

because it's about enterprise control. the jew already controls mobile apps so they don't have to force web alternatives. if anything, they have more control over their own apps

When phones came out they had terrible performance. They could only run applications if they were "native" and optimized for phone. These days a lot of thirdies still have shit phones so apps run smoother. Its also easier to integrate payments into apps from the app store. Thats the main reason why apps are still a big thing on phones.

also apps with an app store (that you launch from your home screen) is easier to navigate on phones than multiple websites.

This is actually a very good question. I wish deploying web tech on mobile was a robust solution like on desktop.
Instead all we have is fucking R*act
