I had a coworker that had the birthdays of his contacts at the end of each of them, so he would see that date anytime he chatted with them (us?) through WhatsApp.
I don't question his methods, but that worked for him.
I wonder if it is too hard for Google to convince Apple to implement this with iOS, even in the form of an app...
I just used pairdrop.net a couple hours ago because I was too lazy to install LocalSend in my gf's iPhone and it was a breeze to use to share a short video from there to my Android device...
There is no way I'd use Lemmy with the web app if I didn't know about:
Summit
Voyager
Boost
Eternity
Sync
Clients... The same could be said for more apps (like Reddit, Feedly etc) so yeah I think I am more in the mobile apps, aside from extremely annoying ones, such as Amazon, Ebay, AliExpress etc.
I did that... In 2011 or something, when not every website had a mobile UI... I personally don't recommend it, in fact I'd dare to say this played a big role in the web forums to die... To not adapt properly for the tiny screens at the required time.
The app is beyond broken for me since it stopped supporting mark read on scroll... The worst thing is that AFAIK this "new" change is just a minor code fix... But the dev is missing.
What you are describing is similar to me of how Chrome handles it on desktop, not a fan (I prefer STG, or Safari), but definitely better than nothing for a stock experience.
I understand the purpose of the Google app on Android, but what is the purpose to have the effort of installing it in iOS while you have "the power of Google" in safari or whatever browser you use?
