The benefit of being able to send mobile notifications cannot be understated. Mobile sites are great but if your users are on mobile and you don’t have a way to notify them you’re cutting yourself off at the knees. Many crypto projects are desktop first (bc wallets) and don’t internalize the lessons of the 20

but tbh mobile sites for crypto inherit the UX of the wallet, which as a dapp dev you cannot control. Which means, when ppl use Metamask Mobile on Android, your users are guanteed to have an abysmal experience. So I wouldn‘t even ship a website, and instead build a thing like the FC client.

There’s an ask of post-2010s. To discovery every frame of the UX. Mobile asks that question and defines novel UI.

Do you think if iOS would allow push notifications for PWA, we'd see a lot more mobile-first innovation? I suspect many web3 apps go desktop less because of wallets and more because of app store reviews.

Very true. I built myself a mobile app to notify me of some web3 stuff — mainly to avoid being liquidated! — meant to expand on it and release publicly, maybe soon…. Even if mobile apps aren’t feasible for some dapps, there are other ways to send mobile notifications 🤔

Omg this. We’re doing a PWA so we can do browser notifications, but they’ve been ruined by all the scammy content sites so nobody enables them
