@schizanon That's interesting. I didn't realize that PWAs were that common. I think the only PWA I consistently used was the Birdsite, before it went to shit. What PWAs do you like?

@bad_wolf Twitter had a good one, now it's desktop only :sadneko:

Masto is good, but Elk and Phanpy are good too.

I use ProtonMail, YouTube, Coinbase, Grubhub, Spotify, Google Maps, Android Messages, Pinterest, Wormhole.app, and GitHub pretty often.

@schizanon Ahh, gotcha. Phanpy actually does work as a PWA in Firefox on Android, and wish Elk would catch up (I prefer Elk to Phanpy). I've tried using Elk in a chromium-based PWA, but the tradeoff is all links open in chrome, which doesn't support adblock on Android. That experience (opening a link and getting blasted with ads) is so awful (for me) that I'm happier just pinning Elk in a tab on my phone, but different strokes for different folks.

@bad_wolf Firefox doesn't support PWAs on desktop at all.

Also on Android they don't support the share target API which lets you share things to a PWA which is most of the reason I want to install them.

Brave supports both of those things and also has an ad blocker!!
