I always have it open on my Android phone, and I actually even installed it as a PWA on my Windows 11 PC. I can snap it to the side and pull up my Lemmy feed anytime and get the same experience on phone and PC. I really appreciate your clearly highly skilled efforts and your admirable work ethic @aeharding@lemmy.world .

I'd encourage anyone that is using and enjoying the app with it's rapid-fire updates and developer involvement to consider popping over to his Github sponsor page at https://github.com/sponsors/aeharding to buy this gentleman a cup of coffee or three. Hopefully we're not wearing you out with all the ideas and requests and reports... it speaks to the level of engagement and enthusiasm you're creating for your expanding user base. Thank you!

I have very mixed opinions about PWAs. Philosophically I love them (remember the Ubuntu phone? That would have been my iOS alternative!). But in practice most aren’t done very well and feel like a browser bookmark that has been opened from the home screen. But wefwef feels outright native, totally impressive!

I run Miniflux (rss) on my VPS, which has also a very nice PWA.

Personally not a fan as my launcher (aio) does not support homescreen icons

Pwa's are great, if you have a traditional homescreen
