I recently started using webapps and it’s a good experience. Which websites have good webapps? What do you guys use/ recommend?
Currently, I use:
- mapcomplete
- listenbrainz
- peertube
- lemmy
- spenderservice.net (blood donation)
But WebApps or PWAs suck on Firefox? Firefox just creates a bookmark, instead of ‘making app’ for ‘app-like’ experience?
There is the Pwa for Firefox extension, works pretty well for me.
I use that every day as well and it works great.
Does it hides tabs and other buttons? I never used it…
Yes
I must be missing something. I find that extension, but not for Android. How do I add this on mobile?
It works properly for Firefox on Android but yeah I wish they hadn’t given up on PWAs for desktop. I don’t need electron apps running 4 different browsers at once on my machine…
On android it makes a shortcut. When you launch it you will still launch usual browser with toolbar and menu. It makes zero sense to use such ‘PWA’.

Is this the “install” option from the settings drop down in Firefox Mobile? I accidentally pressed the button for Kbin the other day, didn’t go through with it but it was interesting.
I haven’t used these since… Man, the iPod 3G?
Personally, my Internet usage these days is mostly just the fediverse and what I find through them. I’d be interested if there were any particularly good ones though.
I guess it could be useful for game information websites, but I’d want to avoid the awful conglomerate one for that, and I tend to just use the information as a text search and it pops up. I feel like if I’m directly on the site I never find what I need as quickly, so maybe not.
Maybe some of the music websites I’ve come across would be good.
Samsung Internet (currently using MBIN web app from it).
its also the best browser imo… ad/tracker blocking wise aswell as layout customization and dark mode forcing…
It’s your personal choice to advertise a chromium-based browser on the !c/firefox@lemmy.ml channel, but…
