There are quite few technical reasons people pony up the app store overhead instead of make a PWA. Performance, UX, lack of standards. PWAs are popular but how often do you see comments bemoaning the use of web stacks and pining for native apps? |

On HN, all the time, but it's not something that regular users notice or care about. It's not that native apps can't be on some level superior, but most people can't tell the difference and frankly, most native apps I've had to use are just as bad on all performance metrics as Slack and company.
What people are really complaining about is that most apps are made as quickly and cheaply as possible, and those lazy apps are disproportionately web apps because web is cheap and easy.
