Get away with what though?
You’re the one who’s ascribing maliciousness to their actions. But you don’t have that backed up by anything concrete other than your subjective perception.
From what they’ve written they removed it initially to keep all browsers equal, which is what the DMA implies is necessary.
They now brought it back with only WebKit support.
It’s completely logical that their lawyers worked with the EU to clear this exception.
People here ascribe too much in the way of human emotion to corporations.
If they were really trying to kill PWAs they’d have done it everywhere. If they were really trying to stick it to the DMA, PWAs are such an insignificant feature to do it with.
What are the percentage of people who’d be so inconvenienced that the PWA would open in a browser tab instead of a pseudo browser instance?
