I actually like to have an app over just a website. Even if the app is just a website.

I would open an app once on my phone. Even when I put the link of the website on my home screen, every click would open a new tab in my browser instead of just redirecting me to the web page I already had open 2 hours ago.

And with an app, I can be more selective with permissions and what that app should be allowed to do or not, like sending notifications.

But I feel like that nowadays most things are developed mainly for mobile devices which pisses me off too because visiting your website now has all of that empty space on most of my monitor while the actual used spaced is so cramped that it looks weird.
