Apple has decided to remove Progressive web apps from iOS in EU. If you have a business in the EU or serve EU users via Web App/PWA, we must hear from you in the next 48 hours!

Didn’t Firefox kill PWA support too.

What was Mozilla’s reason behind this?

Only on the desktop. PWAs still exist on the mobile version of it.

Do they? I haven’t been able to figure it how to save a shortcut for a PWA, so all the PWAs on my phone use Chrome :/

Reasons were basically too much maintenance for little benefit on the desktop they could see

Meanwhile, they remove GTK and Qt theming from Thunderbird

(n.b.: I actually agree that PWAs have little more benefit on the desktop than a bookmark, but still)
