To your first 2 points: Yes, it's quite possible that some features shouldn't be implemented, and yes, it's unlikely that there is a simple rule to describe all the cases where things should and shouldn't be implemented. But that doesn't mean that they're not drawing the line in the wrong place now; it seems like you're arguing that because something is subjective it's irrelevant.

I answered that after literally clicking the menu item and making sure it worked on my phone. My guess, after reading through https://caniuse.com/web-app-manifest , is that maybe there's something about service workers or background processing that they're not doing, but just sticking an icon on the homescreen, empirically, works fine.

And what exactly is that place? I've asked this three times already and you still can't answer what it is that Safari doesn't support and must implement to be "on par" with Chrome.

> and making sure it worked on my phone

You wrote this after I literally said, "I looked it up on Can I Use. It was for desktop versions."

So:

- you still haven't said what exactly you're missing from Safari to consider that it "properly supports PWAs"

- you clearly ignore what I write

At this point I'm no longer interested in this one-sided conversation

You've been repeatedly given answers, but you have decided to dismiss them because you decided they're somehow irrelevant, just like I suspect the people at Apple will dismiss any valid criticisms of Safari, and only listen to the gushing Apple fanboys that claim Safari is all rainbows and unicorns.

... aaaand that's how a fantroll ends a conversation he's losing.
