That is a very deceptive way to put it.

Safari is intentionally crippled in several areas. Its very specific and obvious. It is dishonest for you to at this point pretend Apple is going full force for web standards while they are explicitly not implementing features that are available everywhere else. And how those specific features line up directly as features which allow web apps to compete with its native application market.

Edit: To anyone seeing this down-voted. Apple employees typically down-vote stuff like this so please do not take this being greyed as anything but manufactured opinion.

Presumably the downvotes are because your comment went uncivil, by accusing another user of dishonesty and by insinuating astroturfing without evidence. Neither of those things are allowed on HN, so please don't do them again.

anybody else here actually build a progressive web app only to find that safari supports none of it's features? chrome + android (maybe even microsoft) are so far ahead here it's not even funny
