Oh, also Firefox is the only mainstream browser on Android that supports installing extensions.
This. I switched to Firefox on Android, because of extensions. At the same time I switched to Firefox on Windows. And I never looked back. The only problem I have is native support for PWA on Firefox for desktops (we can add support with 3rd party app), and backgorund notifications doesn't work on PWAs on Firefox for Android
Weird , I have been using ff , twitter pwa for years and notifs work for me , although i voluntarily disabled notifs now !
Hm... It doesn't work for me on my own app, where notifications are main part of the app. It does work on Chrome for Android and on both Chrome and Firefox on Windows, but on Firefox I never received a single notitication. And all notifications are enabled. I will try to remove and add PWA in firefox again and we will see. Is there some PWA app where I can test if notitications are working? I am not using Twitter.
There is a telegram pwa i think but i use the open source app for that !
