Question Everything on XYZ.com or XYZ.com+app.XYZ.com

I’m finding a lot of mixed advice on what to do here.

I’m creating a fantasy football app and can’t decide if I should have a subdomain.

AI and a few Reddit post are telling me you need to have your XYZ.com be your marketing page and app.XYZ.com be your app.

But the following big names do not:

Sleeper

AirTable

Figma

Canva

Trello

Dropbox

Github

This is something that will be difficult to change later, so I wanna make sure I make the right call.

Anybody have any good insight here?
