I’m using rocm with ollama and it works out of the box on 6900XT

Stremio + ThePirateBay plug-in works great (allegedly)

Better than then putting all returns in a shredder like right now

Your website can just preload all pages needed for offline mode

On android, my PWA that I developed for fun can go full screen and appear as though a browser isn’t wrapping the page

That is literally how I am using kbin.social right now even though it’s just a website

I can send notifications, I can access the microphone and camera, I can do nearly everything you could expect an app to do

All of those are defined in the web spec as well so you wouldn’t need an app for that (if apple implemented all of them, not sure if they have)

I can support offline mode

Your cached web page can do that too (even though most web pages don’t because it’s not a common usecase)

I can store data locally

Cookies have existed for much longer than the iPhone

uninstall my app at an OS level.

A website added to your home page basically acts like an app: it has an icon on your home screen and you can longpress > delete it just like apps

Badges might be the only valid complaint (I don’t know if they are part of the web spec)

[Apple] is acting against the consumer.

Not sure how this is hurting the consumer. This has been announced many years ago and devs haven’t been able to publish new or update old web apps for ages, so this change only applies to those very old apps still on the appstore.

Yes because what they are doing is just removing websites from the app-store. Other app-stores might add those websites to their store if they want but for the user it is almost always better to just save the website to their homescreen, which gives the exact same UX as previous web-apps but now you don’t need to go to the app-store to download it, the app takes up no storage on your device and the web app can’t access your privacy sensitive device IDs that might be used for cross-app tracking.

They are not sabotaging “web apps” (aka websites), you just need to save the website to the homescreen if you want to use a web app, (this is both quicker and takes up less storage on your device so it is better for the end-user).

They are removing these “apps” from the appstore because they are not native apps.

A steam deck can run all the games those two can and it runs Linux which means it will probably never be obsolete
