New top story on Hacker News: Ask HN: Is it me or PWAs are pretty much dead?

Ask HN: Is it me or PWAs are pretty much dead?

It does not make business sense for Apple or Google to allow them for obvious reasons. They get money from in app purchases. If every app was a PWA they would lose a lot of revenue. Even for businesses that are ad supported they are better of with native apps. You can block ads on a PWA very easily because it's a web app. With a mobile app good luck switching the ads off. Now, I get the technical advantages of a PWA but it seems to me that it has failed to take off because of the business reasons above. Is my assessment correct?
