I can see apps becoming less important over time. PWAs were basically what Apple originally planed for the smartphone anyway and now they are capable of damn near anything you would want an app to do. No store to rely on. No updates to install. No storage space being eaten into. The browser engine functions as a layer of abstraction between the scary untrusted app and your own OS. It’s kinda perfect.

You might think so but PWAs have been around for a long time and seen very little adoption.
They haven’t been promoted or supported well until fairly recently. Also, Firefox is not compatible with PWAs but chrome, edge, and safari are.
They’ve been well-supported for many years.
Open Firefox and pin a PWA. I’ll wait.
Wait for what? I’ve done this many times.
Firefox doesn’t have PWA support. They pulled it years ago.
I don’t know about vanilla Firefox but I use IronFox and it works great so I suspect you’re wrong.
Holy crap, Firefox put it back in! https://www.askvg.com/enable-or-disable-pwa-support-and-add-tab-to-taskbar-button-in-firefox/
