    I don’t understand why people use apps instead of web interface…

    That the apps serve ads makes it even more confusing

        “Sucks” is generous. Maybe it’s passable on desktop?

        Also there are apps without ads.
        In fact I didn’t know there were apps with ads before this post.

      I use an app (Voyager) and have no ads, they just chose one with ads for some reason

        If you’re interested in trying an app with no ads, I’m using Thunder and it’s great. Cross platform for Android and iOS.

        The ad free upgrade for boost is only a few dollars. I don’t remember if it’s done through the app or the play store, though.

      Jerboa, Raccoon etc dont do ads(get them.from F sroid) . Boost does if you don’t buy it.
