I'm actually working through the same school of thought with my UX team. Front end design is complicated these days. But the investment in native app development is much more heavy then creating a mobile-responsive (playing nice) experience as you know. My UX team has taken the approach that anything we design must be designed mobile-first, because desktop is a simple given.
I get it. 70% of traffic is mobile these days so you have to cater to that.

But when some douchebag calls me on Google Voice, the responsive versions need to enable me to block the caller just like the desktop version. It should not hide that feature just because I'm on a tablet or mobile phone - which is what it does.

At least I can get to the desktop UI version on an iPad. I cannot with an iPhone. This situations happens far more often than you'd think. Like mobile versions of web sites where the ability to comment is disabled in the non-desktop version, etc.

Rofl at the 24 hour ban I got from either Aaron or X. "you're banned for circumventing your Allegri thread ban by accessing it via Tapatalk" :lol: are these guys serious? Just because I admitted I did it (I actually didn't even know I was banned at the time, I only found out when I tried to access the thread through my computer)

That's the forums fault. Not mine. Yall niggas are crazy.

Everyone has an imaginary companion who will be with you your entire life. His name is Fear.

If you allow this companion to take control of your life, then he'll put you in a straitjacket.

But Fear can also be your loyal companion. When you hop on the wild roller coaster of life, engaging in an infinite number of exhilarating undertakings.

He won't get in your way, but he'll always be there as long as you're doing new things. When you feel fear it's a sign that you're doing something new and exciting.
