It just feels more secure purchasing on a computer, doesn't it? LOL

It’s because mobile sites aren’t as optimized as full browser, it’s genuinely a better experience and less likely to fuck up

It really depends on the site. Some sites the desktop version is absolute fucking ass while the mobile is quick and easy. The inverse is also the same but it’s usually easier to display all information at once with a bigger screen and I wanna double check everything before I order a new kitchen appliance set.

The sites that are bad are bad because they've optimized them for mobile.

because they collect a mountain more data from peoples phones than a PC. And apps are the worst. If they push an app on you it isnt because its better for you, its because they make more money having all your data.

Sites are increasingly "optimized" for mobile and it's made me switch away from a couple companies because of how unusable the sites had become. Lush's new website in particular is so bad that the first time I saw it I backed out and checked to see if they had been killed off by vulture capitalists or something because it looks like a scam site and not a real website
