A mobile application
#1

Having a mobile application could be more fluid with a more interactive forum like the portal or the index which are modern while the forum seems far from it

I don't really see the connection to the topic of discussion, but okay.

Building and maintaining both ios and android apps is significantly more work than just a desktop site. Imo there's very little payoff to having an app vs just a site. It may be a smidge cleaner, but at what cost?

If these are the only payoffs then the juice isn't worth the squeeze.

I'd imagine the development team would welcome an extra set of hands to talk through what may or may not be feasible, and help you understand the current state of things.

Honestly you get used to the site on mobile after a while. I used to be a hater too but after enough time you get used to the little quirks

I’m sorry but do you think we have the resources to build and maintain a quality mobile app?

We would have to start paying people to work on this full-time and that's not possible.

honestly much prefer maintaining web apps. being platform agnostic makes our day-to-day and our hosting much easier. we also don't have to worry about compiling our code which reduces our deployment overhead.

it also costs $100/year for an app store developer license, on top of all the hosting fees and AWS compute we already pay. so we would need to know that a mobile app would generate enough traffic to increase annual donations by at least $100.
