Yes, but pwa's open in a standalone browser, and everything else just opens a new tab. Ich

Is there a way to force this standalone browser behaviour for non PWA?

Yes it’s a meta tag:

<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes"> more info: https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/Ap...

Ok. So then I would need to proxy hacker news and mitm with my own certs and add the header or ask dang to get that tag added. Not sure which one is more feasible.
