@OptiplexPrime@mastodon.social @firebreathingduck@social.vivaldi.net @danirabbit@mastodon.online problem with the new Microsoft web apps has a lot more to do with badly performing react frameworks that subvert the way web browsers are supposed to operate than it does the PWA tooling.

@danirabbit@mastodon.online If I'm using something often enough I'm always going to want a native app. All these electron apps and overbuilt SPAs are a huge UX dilemma. And don't get me started on all these web apps using material design... Cool, thanks, let me just rewire my brain to find that thing in your app which operates 100% the opposite of everything else on my screen in the OS's design pattern. A well built site can avoid these issues, even if it does a lot of "App" stuff. Adhering to accessibility patterns, semantic html/css over custom nonsense, and a light touch of PWA tooling tends to make a site look and behave in a more OS-neutral manner anyway. But that's so rare.
