I admit I’ve been a bit curious since I’ve been hearing about it so goddamn much recently it seems.

Can I use this with a desktop/browser or is it phone/app only?

Both I think. Idk I'm on kalshi because polymarket is technically banned in the US and I can't be bothered with crypto. The second polymarket has a market on some variation of 'Trump dies of natural causes before leaving office by other means' I'll consider the hoops worth jumping through.
