So there's a feature that CoHost has that I really enjoy, and that's the ability to install the site like an app (even though it's just booting through Chrome). It allows the devs to not rely on Play Store/App Store, but rather to update their sites on their own terms. CoHost allows us to do this, as well as other sites like Mastodon, MissKey, and Lemmy.

Alternatively, some of the new sites don't give us this option. Sites like BlueSky, Itaku, and others have a "Save to HomePage" button, but that just saves a link that opens up the Chrome App (Basically a glorified bookmark rather than a psuedo app). I have no idea how hard this is to implement, but I sincerely feel like more apps should be doing this.
