>When did the word "app" took over?
Some time in the late 80s or early 90s.

What? You though shortening "application" to "app" was something new? It's not.

App is non-threatening and not (necessarily) technical. Nobody outside IT wants to know what's the difference between a program and an application.

App is synonymous for "maek computar do fing". 10 years ago we were calling all of them programs anyway. Who cares?

???

You think it's bad that everyone is interested in programming now and that it's more available and accessible than ever?

Get over it.

No, we called it apps then too.

>>56287039

Please OP, pontificate us with an example where the difference between Program, Application and Dynamic Extensible InterWeb e-Page is actually vital and brings more to the discussion than autistic nitpicking

App sounds more warm then application. Of course people are going to stick with it.

>>56287105
No, we didn't. Most people still call computer software "programs", not apps. Unless you're talking about mobile software, which was always called "apps" or "applications" but there wasn't much software back in the day, other than games and eventually Facebook, so it seems like it was never used just because majority of people didn't have a need to have any apps on their phone unless you're a girl who downloaded the "pocket vibrator".

Hey, lets stick around so we can all watch it crash and burrrrrrn. Truly, you don't know how bad things are getting.
