So we've reached the point where the web doesn't exist anymore in the general opinion, it's just wall gardened apps now ? 🙁 #web4.0

For the average user, might as well. Most people don't use PCs in casual settings and most Android phones come with Facebook preinstalled.

Especially in developing countries. A lot of people there have literally never experienced the open web.

Ow, this one seems to particularly suck 🙁
