Now that Memmy is in the App Store on iOS, I feel like Wefwef is going to be left behind since this is the main place people go to discover apps. I know that Wefwef is a PWA web app but if it could be put in the store that might get more people to use it. Are there any downsides to being in the store?

Out of curiosity, why? Are you ideologically opposed to progressive web apps?

I just don’t like how it freezes as a limitation of being a webapp.

Ah, I see. I've been fortunate to not experience that at all, thankfully.

I’ve seen some comments that the webapp format is the cause, and one against that assessment. Doesn’t really matter to me what the cause is.

That’s not because it’s a web app.

Cool. It’s still an unpleasant user experience.
