That's the reason why I use Firefox on Android.

That's the reason why I might start to use FF again (tbh at this point I don't see why to use anything else).

I am using Firefox as well and I don't think I'd go back to Chrome, but I wish it supported progressive web apps a bit better!

@Camilo @kratoz29 I don't think Firefox is any worse at progressive enhancement than chrome, most developers don't even consider it so perhaps chrome is better at running poor code than Firefox, but that is not a good reason to use it, just encourages poor coders and coding

They said PWA. Chrome and Chrome like browsers can install pwa as native apps, aka webapks on your android. Firefox can only add a shortcut where sites can run full screen.
