@eniko can we also go back to calling them "programs" not "apps"? Or am I alone in that peeve?
I'd be happy to compromise at “application” because that's a more narrow, accurate term for what they are @bencourtice.
I'm also glad that the obvious power grab by Apple, to call them “app” and then attempt to claim an “app store” can only be owned by Apple, has failed.

@daviddoes @eniko Within reasonable limits, I am willing to pay for there to *not* be an app.
@datarama @daviddoes @eniko I do not only want my toaster to be part of a botnet, I want my toaster to not have electronics AT ALL.
There is no reason for my fridge, toaster or oven to have a microcontroller. Really, we've been doing these things a century and today we seem to default to adding microcontrollers to everything.

@eniko This reminds me of one of the favorite apps on my phone: Animated Knots by Grog.
https://apps.apple.com/de/app/animated-knots-by-grog/id376302649
It has detailed explanations of almost 200 knots, and animations on how to tie all of them.It hasn’t been updated for years, because it’s basically done. I bought it once for the price of a coffee, and now I just use it whenever I need something more than my 3 standard knots.
(I have dyslexia-but-for-ropes, and this is the only way I can learn new knots.)

@eniko can we also request the coders to have a nap time during the day? Rest is important, and I'm not kidding about that either.

@eniko looks like copying being the highest form of flattery is also possible in the fediverse https://donotsta.re/objects/67cb9b8d-ff23-4e10-8af3-f26ec1c50ac3
@pouncy_panda eh, that one's a bit different from mine so i wouldn't jump to conclusions
though even if someone copied it verbatim, in this case i'd probably just be happy to see this thought spreading further

@pouncy_panda hopefully someone shops it into a video game character image
(well except the paid part)
