You’re right — PWAs can be feature rich and versatile. I’m glad they exist.
However, as much as I like wefwef (especially coming from Apollo), I don’t like having the URL bar perpetually taking up real estate like it does on iOS. I’m also much less likely to trigger browser-specific functions if I’m using a dedicated app.
Assuming the Lemmy platform remains open, I don’t have any issue supporting a developer for making a great app for it.
The issue with Reddit is not that devs were making third-party apps for it… it’s with the people running the platform.
If you save it to the homepage this doesn't happen. Guide
The URL bar won’t be visible if you added it on your homescreen.
I think they may be referring to the bar at the top where the URL bar was. In my case at least, and maybe I did something wrong, but mine still has a blank bar where the URL bar was. I think they're referring to that "real estate."
I tested it on both Android and iOS and I still can’t see the URL bar. I even moved the URL bar on top in Safari (I prefer it on the bottom) and still can’t see it. I’m not sure why it’s happening on yours.
It shouldn’t show the URL, have you added wefwef to the Home Screen?
