sure, but it's a fact that millions have downloaded rednote in the past week. I think millions is "many"

the only thing nosql means is that there are no relations. mongodb 8 and newer for example support schemas and validations, cascading checks, etc. dynamodb, more relevantly does also support a schema, and in fact you can't even create a table without defining one.

are there really countries where the bank doesn't have a website you can use to do a transfer, but you could do it through an app?

but HN is centralized, so you agree if HN exceeds some arbitrary amount of users it should be banned? how ridiculous. tiktok is not any better or worse than facebook, youtube, or the mainstream media.

I'm not talking about the quality, I'm saying that red note has been getting a wave of downloads as tiktok gets closer to its imminent ban

why? you don't have to use them. should HN be banned?

what seems unlikely? it's simply a fact that many are going to the other app. as you said yourself, 10m+ downloads on play store, #1 on ios app store, etc.

I'm curious what functions other than maybe depositing a check requires a banking app?

why use a device by someone you don't trust? honestly don't get it. I'd use an open source android distro

It doesn't really matter if they ask you or not, ultimately you have to trust them, and if you don't trust Apple, why would you even use an iPhone?

strange comment - this should be a website that would presumably be hosting, where exactly?

the average person would not be able to make something even close to this sheet. where are they going to host it? do they have a domain? certs? do they even know how to write html? css? during a spiky event such as a wildfire, will their website even stay up?

It doesn't really make any sense to use it locally - the whole point is that it's managed. If you just want a clustered key value store you could use Cassandra, Garnet, etc.

I'm glad we have different options available. I personally use Chrome, but it's good that Firefox exists too.
