Goodbye Web Workflow

Four years I abandoned all native desktop apps except an ssh client and a text editor.

I completely migrated my work life 100% to site-specific browsers with Google apps and 1Password.

We were living in the future and I loved it.

Fast forward to today: 1Password doesn’t work with Fluid anymore and Google’s new borderless-contrastless-whitespace interface is rolling out everywhere.

Now we’ve actually reached the future and it’s miserable. What’s a guy to do? I’m thinking about going back to all native desktop apps. Mail, iCal and Pages, I guess.

I hate to sound like a curmudgeon, but I really want to roll-back everything to 2010.

How are you dealing with this?
