    Me too, as PWA

    • notifications don’t work for me
    • links open in the same window instead of going to the app
      so yt links open yt page instead of NewPipe
    • there is no “drafting”
      so if I swipe back when typing a comment, I’ll go back and my WIP comment will be gone
    • seeing votes (the up and down popup) is a gamble
    • when I expand three dots I’m always afraid I’ll click something when trying to scroll
    • in order to share the link I need to open the drawer
