This is probably motivated by the EU decision that since no uses iMessage in the EU, Apple is not legally a "gatekeeper". Perhaps no one (i.e. fewer than 40 million people) uses web apps in the EU, therefore they are gambling that they are allowed to legally gatekeep in that market
That shit brand created a cult for dimwits thinking they are better and smarter than everybody else by becoming platform slaves, and thus be exploited, as their only benefit of their deficiencies and dependency is consumism.
I like there hardware but I don't like what they do with it and what they do with the software
How will this affect the Lemmy client Voyager? Is it considered a web app? My understanding was that it was.
A lot of kerfuffle over not much. If you’re going to release a web app instead of a proper app, then I’m quite happy to have a bookmark to the web page instead of a bullshit fake app wrapping the same bookmark. Don’t clutter my phone with that garbage.
It's more than that - for example in Safari after seven days with a bookmark, all data the website stores on device is deleted.
With a PWA saved to your home screen, your data is kept until you delete the icon from your home screen.
Also, PWAs don't have a browser toolbar.
Well, I'm definitely not paying Apple $99 a year to be on their shit store, so I've opted for PWA. It's made as an app from the scratch, not really much different from a native app.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
