Ios safari doesn’t support the vibration api.

Why? I use siri all the time and it’s useful

I’m not sure how firefox does it but I don’t think pwas themselves have control over this. Sounds like a feature request for firefox to me.

How exactly does the update feature work? Why, if it’s a web app, do I need to update at all? Doesn’t it just auto update when you load the app?

Not exactly. It’s a “web app” in the sense that it’s using web technologies. But the code bundle is stored and served locally via service workers. So for example even if you don’t have internet connection, you wouldn’t see the browser error page. The app still runs and shows it’s own errors.

Not possible on IOS. But can be done on Android.

Is it that good? I don’t know what it is really but like all my friends are talking about it. And steam really wants me to play it; every page has it.

It’s coming. There is some infrastructure work that needs to be done before it but it’s almost there.

Enjoy hiding your posts people :)

No. The browser (which is the runtime that pwas use) is already a very limited environment with little to access to the system - and if the app wants to access something potentially sensitive, then the browser asks for permission. Even then it doesn’t have access to nearly anything that a native app can access.

Can you add a nsfw:only filter while you’re at it? :)

I found a way on IOS :) But you'll need Safari running on Mac.

• Enable Web Inspector on iPhone. Settings > Safari > Advanced > Enable Web Inspector
• Connect your phone to your mac
• Open wefwef.app on the phone, connect to it from macos safari developer menu.
• Change the icon urls in the inspector then install the app on the phone.

No, let’s say you’re subscribed to 2 communities. One is very active and the other one is not too much. In that case the popular one would always dominate the feed. But there could be an option to mark a community as “important” so you see more of it.
