Suspect Apple will just extend it out to other territories too. Not just EU.
Won’t believe this talk of Apple opening up and allowing side-loading of apps anytime soon. Their actions are showing a complete reluctance to do so.
Once censorship & takedowns on the App Store become more prevalent than today, people will eventually look for alternatives. Closed networks need to act like boa-constrictors to sustain their position, if running out of growth, like Apple are today.
I think this is just more malicious compliance by Apple. Their "solution" to DMA is a horrible, unworkable solution that will be fought in courts just as Apple intended. The PWA thing is just an extra FU from Apple. They could allow PWAs to continue as-is when created from Safari and have no solution for third-party browsers. Let's see what happens
