Mozilla does not want to support PWAs in Firefox, yet MDN has a PWA manifest and can be installed in Chromium. (discuss.tchncs.de)

For what is worth, the pwaforfirefox project works beautifully, I use it with discord, teams and tidal everyday.

I don't like or use Discord but what's the benefit of using it as a web app vs the downloadable client?

  1. better privacy as no process scanning or direct access to cam/mic
  2. better performance as discord desktop app for windows still uses 32bit electron, which makes it slower than the web app

  1. better security as you have an up to date browser engine unlike the desktop app
