The web is poised to make a big comeback on mobile. New browser features and PWA techniques have closed the gap considerably. There will always be a market for real native apps but a lot of people are going to realize that a PWA is good enough and easier to build and maintain.
The web gives you a lot of things for free that are hard on native. Engineering is always about trade offs and you’re going to see more people opting to accept the tradoffs of the web over native on mobile, just as they have for years already on the desktop.
Not when their UI/UX mobile experience keeps sucking.
Regarding the desktop, ChromeOS is a failure outside US school system, I am yet to see at least one person using them in an European coffee shop or retail, hence why Google has added support for native Android apps.
Yeah I totally agree. I think that if you couple PWA with all of the new Smart Contract Web 3 stuff that's coming, it looks like there is going to be a resurgence.
This is something I'd expect Apple & Google to fix in their JS engines, so I don't see why it's more of a risk for web apps than native apps. If anything it's easier to fix.
