Didn’t apple disable PWA’s in Europe?

[–] Unmapped@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yes, they did that when the EU made the ruling about allowing other app stores. Apple doesn't like PWAs cause they lose their 30% cut. Hopefully we some ruling or law that they have to treat them equal to native apps.

Apple doesn’t like PWAs
