Facebook is the #1 offender in my opinion. I absolutely refuse to install any Facebook app. Back in the day, you could message people in the mobile browser without issue. Heck, it even loaded new messages without needing to refresh.

Then they decided you should need the app to message people.

Then they decided you should use a completely separate app to message people versus browse Facebook.

Now I have to use mbasic.facebook.com to message people. The quality of the experience dropped so much because, but I'm glad they don't have access to my contacts, text messages, location, etc. They get enough info about me from other sources.
