But all of them implementing features support on a reasonable time span would be a ridiculously good thing.
We are the clients of the browsers, doesn't almost the entire world -except for monopolies and oligarchies- work hard everyday yo stay up to date with new features by market pressure so we can keep current clients and maybe get more by innovation?
Well, seems that someone didn't do that kind of homework in some browsers.
Firefox Desktop doesn't even support PWAs, neither Safari (any version) brings a good support into it, that's hilarious in 2022.
Sadly some got advantage by being the default browser in some OS and then we need to deal with Safari instead ignoring it like we do with Firefox 🙃

I was referring to the Google interview thing the article is about.
I really have no idea why Firefox stopped work on PWAs for desktop (they support them on mobile) - for years it was possible behind a commandline switch (which has now been removed). It's totally capable of doing it - there are various workarounds/addons in place to do something close to it if you are so inclined... but looking at the actual issues in the bug tracker about PWA support it still seems very much on the back burner for now. Odd decision

A browser monoculture is a ridiculously bad idea

The most ridiculous thing is that if I swap the
user-agent
to Chrome - it works 100%, no problems whatsoever. Shoddy work, or deliberate exclusion?LoL never tried it 😂 you mean in FF or Safari? And you tested the PWA thingy or that new Google webapp?
