Is this doing something similar to Mint’s web apps? Great to have as flatpak regardless 👍

Is this any different from creating an icon which opens the website in a browser?

Nice, this could especially be important in the Linux Mobile space for things like https://windy.com and https://web.pulsepoint.org and the scanner radio and other similar websites

Remember Firefox’s SSB that got removed before anyone knew about it since no one was using it, since it was behind a about:config flag, that users didn’t know about so they didn’t use it so Fx removed it? Weird-ass circular logic from Mozilla. I would have loved that PWA feature.

Currently I’m using ungoogled-chromium on Linux just for PWA because of this decision made by Mozilla 😔

Well don’t, use Mint’s Web Apps application, instead.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
