I might remember that incorrectly, but didn't Mozilla stop supporting PWAs some years ago?

Yeah but apparently, they're gonna restart the whole gig

Hey, I'm all here for it. I missed it and don't want to use chrome for them. Or anything.

Fun fact: almost all the features of pwa's people like, including offline support are actually already built in and work.

The only popular thing that doesn't work is seperating it out to it's own window, you have to visit the website.

My first question is: how is Mozilla going to benefit monetarily from this, because that seems to be the only thing they actually care about.

Honestly they should make like a Libre alternative to VS-Code with their own Plugin Servers

Could be a potential money-maker
