Water usage is probably my biggest. Living in a high desert, my wife and MIL see no problem with filling one side of the sink with hot soapy water to wash a few dishes because “that’s just how I’ve always done it”, to watering the grass and plants for hours. All of this makes me mental.

      The worst are the sites that just redirect you to the play/app store when visiting on mobile.
      I’m surely NOT installing your fucking app after you give me a bad experience (by not showing me the content I’ve received a link to) while I’m a “guest visitor” to your site.

        I have my main phone browser set to automatically request the desktop version of whatever I visit, so I haven’t run into this. Does it happen a lot?

          One example I know is Instagram, here’s an example. Can’t click anywhere without being redirected to the play store.
          I don’t use it, it’s just the first that came to my mind, but in the rare cases someone sends me a link to it I can’t really view what they sent me because of this. And I surely won’t make an account just to see a meme or some shit.

            This is a setting in your browser.

            I have opening apps automatically disabled for places where I have multiple accounts.

              It’s disabled on mine too, that’s why it asks first whether I want to open it in the store.
              It still goes to the play store (website) when I refuse to open it in the play store (app), as can be seen in the video.

      If someone is trying to sell me on a cafe or restaurant by saying, ‘Yeah, it’s kind of expensive, but there are great deals on the app…’ it’s no dice from me.

      So real.

      If I hear “I’m sure meta is a good company that will treat your data respectfully.” one more time!
