I’m right now browsing the fediverse and writing this from the Kbin pwa. It seems to work quite well, with some quirks that I guess could be polished, but overall better experience than most installed apps that should be a website instead
They’re still a thing. If your work uses Google Chat instead of Slack / Teams the only way to install an app version is as a PWA. A company I recently worked for just got most people to use the Outlook PWA instead of the traditional desktop client, and I frequently use Spotify and Soundcloud’s PWAs. One of the more popular backend API testing apps is hopscotch which is entirely a PWA, and this was also written on Voyager for Lemmy.

PWAs are still a thing, we’re just waiting for Apple to open the walled garden.
I’m excited for PWAs personally as this will allow everyday apps to run on devices not running Android or iOS, like Linux phones.

Yeah I’m low key mad that Firefox is not taking PWAs seriously when it has the potential to open up app development to be cross-platform by default.
I know Epiphany is working on PWA support.
