> Apple is intentionally making a "not truly shitty, just bad enough" browser to have us all eternally question whether PWAs, web apps and other open web technologies are inferior to apps.

It is a fact that a company which derives 99% of its revenue from hardware/apps is against PWA (Apple), and company that derives 99% of its revenue from the web (Google) is pushing PWA very hard.

However to me as a user what Apple is doing makes much more sense. If you care for the web, you should be doing exactly what Apple is doing and that is preventing web from touching your hardware as much as possible.
