Question: is Voyager going to be a “real” native app anytime soon? (self.voyagerapp)

Why would you need a native app? Like, what do think would be achievable in a native app that can not be done in a web app, and that you need/want?

I already have a problem with having too many browser tabs open plus it's easier to switch between my browser app and another app than between tabs if I want to look something up or something while reading and replying to stuff on Lemmy.

You didn't install the PWA? It works great and I can switch between voyager/browser easily

That sounds like exactly what I need! Thanks!

Progressive web app. You can install the website as an app on your phone. It creates an icon on your home screen for it and when opening it it's like a separate app, that isn't your browser.

Thanks, I'll do that!
