I think a lot of us who started out with PCs in the '90s or early 2000s have this lingering frustration with the mobile world.
I remember when I first got a smartphone, it felt amazing—all this power in my pocket! But the novelty wore off fast. I was trying to do something simple, like manage my cloud files or edit a multi-line script, and the experience was just agonizing. The screen was cramped, the on-screen keyboard was a frustrating joke, and the app I needed either didn't exist or was a stripped-down, freemium mess that was more interested in showing me an ad or pushing a subscription than actually letting me work.
That's why I'm so happy the pendulum is swinging back to web-based SaaS and AI. It's like the desktop finally won! The real work happens on my keyboard and big screen where the true, powerful tools live. Mobile was a distracting detour where we traded function for size. I'll take a proper OS and a mechanical keyboard over ten thousand 'lite' apps any day.
