Why does Facebook and Instagram still provides web interface when most of their users use the Android or IOS app?

I'm glad they do as that's the only way I access those platforms. Same applies for twitter. Using an app means I can't block ads.
Because there are entire ecosystems that don't have iOS or Android app comparability. Mainly MacOS, Windows, and Linux.
An extra way to get more data , this time from people who doesn't download the app for whatever reasons ( like low storage for example )
I don't download apps if the place has a website. I don't want some garbage company on my phone unless it's in a browser. Infact most applications are just trash and show limited functionality of the website, nothing more. Most program d are literally useless trash.
Meta apps are some of the worst spyware. When I occasionally need to use Facebook, I use the web interface only, so I don't need to install the apps.
You need it to share URLs. You can't know the device it will be opened on. Also, news articles sometimes embed them, which they use to hoard information about readers.
I was really hoping this would say “why does Facebook and Instagram provide a web interface when their crappy platforms rarely show content unless you’re using their app”.
At this point it’s purely a performance that they even offer a web interface to their platform.
Same goes for Twitter.
Because only most users use the app, some still use the web for what ever reason. Gotta give your customer what they want.
Also what about those on a pc?
