Does it work well or they force app download onto you like they do with Instagram? I think Meta felt the pressure, seeing people might move to Mastodon (happy user from today) and wanted their piece of cake

There is (currently) no forced app download for Instagram.

Browser only allows to view posts and preview user profiles (shows first 10 posts and replies and basic user info). It's bad.
