Correct me if I'm wrong, but these "pinned bookmarks" can be on the homescreen like a link that opens in your default browser, right?

If one's definition of an app requires push notifications and local storage.
I get the d!ck move from Apple, but web apps can be way simpler without push notifications and storage on a server under your control. To me personally, push notifications and local storage are overrated.
- fuzzy2 3y ago? My definition of an app-like experience is that it’s not a browser. No address bar, no tabs, no GUI elements whatsoever but the web view. That’s a PWA. Local storage is merely a supporting technology. Push notifications are not required at all.
