..what issue? It isn't technical. I just don't want another stupid shitty app.
The issue of companies wanting to force apps while you don't want another app. Instant apps are a halfway point between a webpage and having to download an app, the app's never actually installed on your phone. It's not much different than a site with heavy CSS.
Screw a midpoint. Those sites push their apps by sabotaging their websites because they have financial incentives to fuck with people and they can scrape more data with an app. No middle ground, no compromise.
