This is really bad. This is going to set bitcoin back years.. if it ever comes back. There really is no point and no real use case for it outside of crime. Unless the whole world o…

Yeah the UI is insanely bad. It’s a classic case of open source bloat. There is literally a button to “open random file” which just made me laugh…

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills reading these comments. Apps are clearly better for end users. HTML and css is SUPER slow. It doesn't feel native, it doesn't feel good to use. Y…

What do you do differently nowadays? How do you stop this happening
