    As long as there are no well-known apps on any app store, there are going to be less kids, since they probably don’t want to go through GitHub. I find most of them are somewhat afraid of downloading apks from websites they might not use often.

      I’m using TestFlight and it’s incredibly simple. A kid could definitely get the apps on ios. But I think kids just have no reason to care about this stuff. They just want a website where their friends are.

      I just use the websites for every social media app, including lemmy. Seems better than apps to me.

      I forget that most “kids” (Idk 20 and down maybe a few years older) only know the internet and technology via Facebook and android/iPhone respectively.

      I scroll on my phone PLENTY, I’m not judging, but I can’t imagine not having a desktop or laptop at least.
