>To be pedantic, Apple does allow Progressive Web Apps which can bypass the App Store. Apple is the company that is actively sabotaging PWAs.

  They work just fine on iOS. Stadia does PWA as well.

    No they don't work fine. The option to install a PWA as an app is quite hidden, compared to Chrome. They refuse to implement push notifications. In general, Safari is dragging their feet in supporting any web standards that would allow PWAs to compete with apps installed from the App store, while at the same time being the only browser allowed on iOS.

      The irony is so thick. Remember iPhone 1.0 was meant to use web apps exclusively.
