I’m wondering if using the website or installing a PWA would be the same from a privacy point of view.
I’m using Firefox with uBlock origin, so I’m wondering what tracking information the site could get if I allow the PWA.

Also in MDN it says the app can integrate with other installed apps, so can the site know more information about my phone when installing the PWA?

Should I continue to just use websites to prevent as much tracking as possible?

    Ah, nice!
    My main concern was the extensions to keep uBlock origin working.

    just a shortcut to open a very slightly app-ier tab

    Yeah, that’s what I guessing it’ll happen and it works fine for me.

      This will depend on browser. With Safari on my iPad, extensions do not apply to PWA installed. I was hoping I could still use some userscripts with Lemmy but they do not function with the PWA and only function if I open the website properly.
