Despite this, I believe PWAs will eventually win, and Apple will be forced to comply if they wish to stay relevant.

Their browser share dropped a little recently (https://gs.statcounter.com/browser-market-share). If that continues, it'll certainly irk them!

IMO, that won't happen until either Apple gives up their control on browser "engine" choices on iOS or Apple itself becomes irrelevant.

Consider that browser share usage could shift around as device usage shifts around during a pandemic.

  • I don't disagree, but would you expect such a significant drop in Safari usage?

    • It’s possible if people are using company-provided devices at home in lieu of their own, and the company is providing Windows devices while theirs were Apple. I don’t know the likelihood of this explanation, though.
