Except one of the main things i like about the web is that websites don’t have invasive access to my life. The web-as-app-platform idea erodes that.

But either way the issue is the same - apple preventing us from installing what we want. But my solution protects freedom in a more robust way: if you break the app store monopoly, you can install chrome or firefox and do all the web-app-platform nonsense you want. If safari adds all the features on that list you’re still stuck demanding apple add a new feature every time you want to innovate.

And as for programming - for the web you can write in a lot of languages but you only have two options For debugging - js and webassembly.
