YSK that almost all browsers except Firefox and its derivatives uses the same base as Chrome called Chromium.

You can also use Firefox/Fennec/Mull/whatever to use PWAs. On F-Droid, there’s an app called Native Alpha that uses the system’s Webview (Chromium based).

Mostly. But it is launched in a different instance of your browser, so it doesn’t mix with it. Becoming more convenient for some cases.

I believe they are referred to as PWA or progressive web app. I’m using Voyager ( formerly wefwef) right now and it’s a pretty solid experience. Been bouncing back and forth between this and Memmy since day one. Voyager is my favorite because it feels like Apollo.

This isn’t a shortcut. It’s an actual app with access to system resources on your phone that a website wouldn’t have access to.

I just miss the rich text editing that Lemmy offers. I don’t care to learn the code or type it out. Eventually I’d like Voyager to get an app in the App Store as an option to build in these extra features.

Definitely, but it gets very regular & quick updates and has gotten much better within like a week
