A lot of this article appears to be based on the belief that the security architecture of iOS and MacOS are identical. This seems ... an unlikely assumption

Now they've stopped supporting PWAs in Europe - dark times for web indeed...

If the argument is that in reality the security architecture of iOS is much much worse than MacOS, I'd be interested to hear the details of that rationale...

It's particularly silly given their cash horde that they are not investing. Speaks to a highly conservative corporate culture almost to the level of stockpiling canned food and shotguns.

Good post, but a bit turbulent to read:

"If you’ve ever built a web app, then your users will suffer. Remember, it’s a world wide web, including the European Union."

"Create a PDF with the following information:"

(me, reading that paragraph: '...what? why?')

[Edit]: I concluded from the bullet-list on why that is requested, but it would help to introduce that intention before instructing me to do something

Why Safari can’t just launch from a Home Screen bookmark even if the user has chosen another “default browser”?

PWAs are already a separate “island” of storage and share nothing with Safari App…

Microsoft does it all the time with Edge on Windows.

It's a shame, Apple is in a place to be the leader and decent, instead it decides not to be both.
