I've updated the post with one of my preferred examples of a PWA. H/t to for the pointer 💜

I thoroughly appreciate the functionality that brings to the table, and of course, the fact that no one can arbitrarily banish it from their app store, curbing its availability.

Be sure to explore the Timechain Calendar and check out my post on the core principles of PWAs (link enclosed in the quoted note👇).

PWAs as Tools to Benefit Future Development of Nostr

In light of Apple's recent actions against Damus and the broader zap functionality, concerns are growing among the Nostr community and beyond (thank you, for highlighting this on the blue bird app).

As the pushback from traditional institutions - including tech companies, governments, and regulatory bodies - is likely to escalate, many are exploring viable alternatives. One of these, as recommended by among others, is shifting towards Progressive Web Apps (PWAs). This strategy could help us break free from the limitations imposed by centralized app store authorities who dictate what can and cannot be incorporated into Nostr clients and other apps interacting with censorship-resistant protocols.
