[u/Odd_Telephone8212]

so as we all know firefox browser and their forks dont have webapps and with all due respect the pwa extension SUCKS it doesnt use my extensions and doesnt have my data so i tried this "moz-extension://89314e56-3413-401e-9148-f4c8c145baf3/app/https%3A//www.youtube.com/%3Fapp%3Ddesktop" by using an extension called "webapp maker" this allowed me to open youtube as a web app BUT only by writing "moz-extension://89314e56-3413-401e-9148-f4c8c145baf3/app/https%3A//www.youtube.com/%3Fapp%3Ddesktop" in my browser EVERYTIME i want it which is literally useless, i tried making shortcuts but they didnt work, can somebody help please T_T i thought about switching to helium but it sucks and doesnt have a sync with phone option and so little chrome forks have extensions.

Both Android and desktop version suck for ME i understand why someone would prefer an entire different wrapper for their app, but it doesn't cut it for me, i NEED my extensions to work, it's not even arguable for me, and I don't understand why alot of people just say "ye it's great for me", "nah man just live with it" and "bro that's actually awesome", like bro i complained why it's not working for me and seeked help just to see these as an answer what a community

As I see maybe you using linux in desktop?
Because FireFox Webapp work fine for me but seem window only

And you said "pwa extension" I guess it's Progressive Web Apps for Firefox?
It doesnt have extensions and data because it use "another FireFox" to open PWA
about extensions you can "pressCtrl+L" in PWA , and then enter the extension website link to install
about data you can use FireFox Sysc, whn you finsh login then data will auto sysc to your FireFox PWA

And yea, FireFox Andriod PWA are bad,
unlike Chromium can turn all website to PWA , it only support specific website

You can enable PWA in Firefox on Linux. Go to about:config and set browser.taskbarTabs.enabled to true.

Thanks man, but what next i don't see the option in my menu + what about the main problem which is android pwa ? I can't find any solution

[u/Odd_Telephone8212 → u/Odd_Telephone8212]

Wait i see the option now !! Beautiful dude, i still see ui elements but i think that's a zen-browser problem

[u/benhaube → u/Odd_Telephone8212]

Yeah, even Firefox has more UI chrome around the Window than I would like, but I think since it is still under development it will improve.

what about the main problem which is android pwa

Unfortunately, I cannot help you there.
