It always starts off great. Then you realize that:
- landscape layout sucks
- app manifest caching is broken
- ... only on certain platforms
- people are stuck on an old version
- or they just want to use the app right now instead of updating
- or their connection was unstable on update and now they have half old and have new assets
- some basic API isn't available
- or is available but has different options than the normal API
- or different bugs
- and things behave differently when installed as a PWA vs a web page
- etc
This isn't a criticism of jumble.social as I haven't used it. I've long advocated for PWAs and web first, but... it's way harder than it needs to be
