- alexcroox 7y agoA lot of companies build a native version of their web app just for push notifications on iOS. Unfortunately I doubt we’ll see web push any time soon.
- soraminazuki 7y agoI avoid many native apps for the exact same reason. Too often I encounter apps that spam and spy on its users while providing no real benefit over a simple website.
- xPaw 7y agoYeah that's a real bummer. Our open source web app [1] supports web push but it doesn't work on Apple's devices because they won't implement it. The situation on iOS is even worse, because every browser is forced to use Webkit under the hood. [1]: https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge
