part of that is old perceptions that have long went away. And the other part is the huge push against PWAs, especially from Apple. Web-based app development has come so far but Apple is showing off its control freak tendencies as usual to make it not seem so.
Hearing the story above about infinite loading to hide crashes really boils my blood and shows that it's simply a matter of care these days (and not hardware/bad middleware) that determines how smooth something feels.
- brookst 2y agoI’m not sure what Apple’s huge push “against” PWAs is, other than just declining to support them. Are they doing anything active to lobby against PWAs?
- johnnyanmac 2y agoI'm not sure if they hit the US side as hard, but they were (to be frank) trolling a lot with PWA support as a protest to the DMA over in Europe. https://x.com/mysk_co/status/1754978973417672794 https://x.com/mysk_co/status/1754978973417672794 I didn't keep up with how this ended, but they clearly do not care for the feature.
- int_19h 2y agoFor that matter, what does "declining to support" even mean? I use PWAs a fair bit on macOS, and as I recall they are available on iOS as well.
