RE: @PavelASamsonov@mastodon.social
Browsers are open. Users can enter a new URL and jump to another site at any time. Apps are closed silos. Once a user downloads an app, the company will confine that user to its own territory.
Also, web pages are limited by the browser's sandbox, making it difficult or impossible to access a user's contacts, device information, etc. Even if an app uses web technologies, it can still request more private data permissions during installation.
I hope PWAs will improve this situation.
