Interestingly enough, when I want the compartmentalization experience that comes from an “App” on macOS, I turn to… Microsoft Edge. Edge has a nifty little feature that lets you “Appify” a website. I mostly find this useful for company-required PWAs, and most-of-all, Microsoft Teams. The Edge-“Appified” MS Teams on macOS is leaps and bounds more performant than the “Native” (Electron) MS Teams apps on macOS (consumes ~25MB of mem vs ~800MB). Has the nice benefit of your “Apps” being a Command-Space away.
edit: clarify & format
- catoc 4y agoDidn't know that about Edge, thanks! For other browsers (incl Edge) Fluid does the same for me (http://fluidapp.com http://fluidapp.com (not affiliated)) After opening a few emails: Outlook MacOs app: 922 MB Outlook PWA via Fluid: 42 MB
