I finally installed macOS Sonoma, so I’m testing Micro.blog as a saved web application for the first time. Works well. The most awkward thing is not having an address bar. Nice that Apple included Edit → Copy Link.

Agree with @pratik and @Ddanielson. If we can have Micro.blog as a saved app on iOS too, I’d prefer that over the native app as it would instantly solve quite a few of my woes.

@pratik both work quite nicely when I need to use my Chromebooks… which is a good job given that there is no native app of any variety for Chromebook that I’ve found.

@manton Does push notifications work?

@voxpelli No, in theory we could make that work now for the web, but right now we only have push notifications for the native iOS and Android apps.

@manton 👍 It’s nice that it’s a single new API to target all browsers, so it’s a doable amount of work 😌 (Depending on whether you send them directly to consumers or use a third party service for it I guess)

@vincent Yeah, Safari for sure supports it in their PWA:s, at least on iOS, but I think on desktop as well

The best app I have tried with that support so far is @f1cal
