Firefox just walked away from a key piece of the open web [progressive web apps]

Oh hey, more fearmongering and horrible clickbait about Firefox, it had been a few hours without some!<p>Firefox just dropped the single site browser feature. The thing that was hidden under a flag for the executable, that you had to actually dig for quite a bit to find. The thing that didn&#x27;t work that well to begin with. Link in your site that redirects to another site? Well, your window is now a... multiple site browser, because it&#x27;s going to stay in there.<p>But no, surely it&#x27;s Firefox moving away from a key piece of the open web, and not because the feature never worked that well in the first place. Or that barely anyone used it.

Oh no, Firefox hates the open web?! Better use Chrome then!<p>I don&#x27;t understand how these article writers are doing more good than harm.

&gt; Mozilla has always championed the open web. So why is it abandoning desktop web apps, the most powerful alternative to proprietary App Stores?<p>Most powerful? Define powerful here. If we&#x27;re talking about convenience, I guess, but even then, a standard webpage is fine. In terms of amount of things it can do, no way. Not having access to a file system or standard sockets immediately disqualifies it from being the second most powerful option in my mind.<p>Maybe the word &quot;powerful&quot; is being used differently here, but I don&#x27;t know what definition they could be using.

The article goes out of its way to quote a Google engineer but doesn&#x27;t bother talking to anyone at Mozilla outside of quoting bug comments?

We&#x27;re investing a lot in PWA is our safe harbor bet against market domination from Google Play and Apple Store.

Wasn&#x27;t FirefoxOS basically based on the idea of PWA like apps?

Honestly firefox&#x27;s PWA support always sucked it didn&#x27;t support extensions, or the Share Target API, and Firefox installed PWAs don&#x27;t show up in the &quot;Remove Program&quot; ui on windows, or even the app drawer on Android from time to time. Even Safari has a better PWA experience. This looks like Mozilla cutting bait when they know they can&#x27;t compete. Firefox is in a death spiral. It&#x27;s been a good run!

This feels like the right decision to me. It feels user-hostile to disguise web pages as executables.

This article talks about one of my pains. This idea of apps was once explored by Mozilla. Remember XUL? XULRunner? I wish they come up with something of that sort soon. Not only that. I also want Mozilla to come up with an alternate for NodeJS. Why can&#x27;t Firefox&#x27;s JS engine be separated?
