I don't understand who the email apps are for, installing the website as a PWA is a better experience.

Not a Firefox user, eh?

Don't get me started on Firefox PWAs.

I use Firefox, but I have to use a different browser for PWAs, it sucks. If I'm lucky, Epiphany works with that website, otherwise I have to use some Chromium browser. Bleh.

[–] cygnus@lemmy.ca 2 points 8 months ago

I did that for a while but the links in the PWA kept opening in that browser instead of Firefox. That's why I prefer to use Electron apps, because links open in FF.
