This is great, thank you! I predict agentic coding will change software dramatically in this direction. I recently had my weather app showing me a full-screen video ad. It drove me so mad that I developed wwads in a few hours with claude, Weather Without Ads (or any tracking, etc.), which can be installed as a PWA on Android or iOS. https://jmrk84.github.io/wwads/ | ||

What a great idea! I've grown pretty frustrated by the ads and constant nags for subscriptions modern weather apps pester you with. I've resorted to the state developed apps in Norway and Denmark but yours seems like a great alternative too. | ||

Indeed. I started coding games/math exercise for my children to make sure they are ads free, and no monetisation shenanigans. I can totally see how it become a new trend. | ||

nice! good idea! I haven't looked into doing a PWA. I've never built one before, but this puzzle app is built with Ruby on Rails and I know the framework has tools for doing PWAs | ||
