How many game developers does it take to casually disparage a career path because of a shitty startup? C'mon, we can be kinder than cheap shots.https://twitter.com/Jonathan_Blow/status/1387520980029829120 …

You keep on mentioning "the numbers" and "these things" like stuff on the web is all the same and it really isn't. I get the ire and frustration, but different categories of solutions fit different problem spaces. There's plenty of utilitarian web things that just work.
Like what? I can't think of a single web site that works for me consistently. By "the numbers" I mean, for example, the number of employee-years per unit of functionality implemented, across various fields.

The implication there is that there's an alternative, non-web, way to implement that same functionality that would somehow magically be better. As if targeting something that isn't the browser is somehow cheaper (which, well, market rates on the app market indicate otherwise).

It would be much better, but not magic, in fact it would have way less magic, in terms of hand-waving blind trust that various barely-known-of layers will somehow do the right thing. Re cheaper, I am not sure what argument you are making there, it seems to be a context switch.
