Because the web app is portable across OS'es to start with.

A lot of the time web apps aren't even portable across different browsers...so...YMMV in regards to the whole portability thing.

    That was the case in the 90s, and hasn't been the case since. "Some times, that are so rare that people point to it and comment on it on forums", yes.

    • It's a day to day occurrence, within Web development teams who have different preferences in browser. I've witnessed it in multi companies over the last decade. If you've not noticed it, then it's highly likely you're not testing outside of a single browser. The fact that you think this is a 90s issue shows that you're either extremely junior and arrogant, or totally out of touch with modern Web development. Either that or in denial. Sorry if that sounds harsh, but if nobody says it too you then you're going to continue on in a sorry little bubble of ignorance.
