If it’s a choice between PWA and no app then of course PWA has a use.

But if you think it will upend the industry then that is frankly delusional. PWA apps are worse than native in every single way for the user. Great for developers. Terrible for users.



Developers trying to satisfy their users are not trying to upend the industry.

And as users can't tell, why is it terrible for users? All kinds of apps can suck and be user unfriendly. That's a different dimension than native vs web.


Users can tell.

That's the whole reason for why the last 15 years of trying web based apps have failed.
