How did the maker of that comic fuck up the very first sentence that badly? It makes no sense. The closest I can guess is it should be “forcing touch design on desktop users” and not “in”, but even that is idiotic grammar. It’s like they don’t know what any of the words really mean.
I understand why, but I in no way agree or think it’s good or acceptable. They’re mainly an ad company, so giving users the option to filter out apps with things they earn money from doesn’t make sense for them. It’s shitty, but logical.
There are third-party apps for the playstore, maybe one or several might have that option? Only one I know the name of just from memory is Aurora, check it out and see if it has those options.
