I wish more websites had installable Progressive Web App versions. Using the PWAs for Mastodon, Libby, and Mauril makes me desperately want it for all my other apps. Discord in particular was really upsetting to find out they don't have a PWA, the interface already works perfectly good in a mobile web browser.

I might be late to the party, but what the fuck is this?
Sure, Progressive Web Apps (PWA) have always been a shitshow on iOS, but has Apple essentially killed them now?

Had to install Chromium in Gentoo to use a web based Minidisc program. Then found out an electron based appimage was available. Appimage works so I choose to use it instead of maintain a Chromium install.
Would be nice if there was a way to take these Progressive Web Apps and package them in Electron as a stand alone program instead of being hyper dependent on Chromium.

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
I recently upgraded my laptop to the most recent version of the most popular Linux operating system, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. It’s free software, costing $0. With Ubuntu’s free Expanded Security Maintenance, it will be supported until April 2034, at which point it can be easily upgraded at no cost. It offers the best user experience for me, with a vast choice of apps and programs […]

I've updated and significantly reworked @petele's article on the Get Installed Related Apps API.

Since Chromium 140, the API now also supports web apps on desktop platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux, and ChromeOS).

I've been excited about #ProgressiveWebApps since the very beginning--the ability to "install" a website to give it all the capabilities of a native app is all I've ever wanted my whole career.
So I really hate to admit that I've stopped using them entirely.
It's just not worth the confusion when you switch between browsers; is this #PWA installed in Chrome or Opera? Is this version of Spotify the native app, or will my widevine settings in @brave make it stop working?
What if your website could behave like an app - without making users download anything?
Meet Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) - the future of frictionless digital experiences.
• Instant loading.
• Works offline.
• No app store barriers.
• Looks and feels just like a native app.
From eCommerce to enterprise tools, PWAs are redefining reach and speed — and helping brands skip the app store line altogether.

Firefox plant Unterstützung für Progressive Web Apps: https://fosstopia.de/firefox-plant-pwas/
Das ist wirklich nützlich und geht bei Chrome ja schon lange. Wobei der Ansatz ja noch etwas anders ist mit "Die neue Lösung erlaubt es jede Webseite mit einem Klick in eine Web-App zu verwandeln.". Ich bin sehr gespannt.

Confirmed: Web apps for Firefox are coming
Firefox users have to do without Progressive Web Apps on the desktop. However, the developers are working on this – but are not committing to a timetable.
