wefwef lite app?
Yes I'm planning to add it to the library. 👍 Currently testing it to make sure it's stable (I ran into a few issues earlier, I think the instance was under maintenance and Wefwef showed an unrelated error)
For now, please add it yourself and let us know how it goes.

What's the best android browser for PWA?
Disappearing icons is a bug with your launcher, nothing to do with the actual browser you're using.
If you're looking for a browser that was specifically designed for web apps, check out Hermit. (Disclaimer: I'm the author).

[Question] Not sure how the "Share" function works
Hi, sharing to Hermit allows for features like:
If piped.video can accept a URL as part of a GET URL, you can use the %u parameter to use it.

Looking for a Browser to manage Web-Apps better, needs to spawn multiple instances limited to domains

That's exactly how opening links works in Hermit.
You can also have multiple Lite Apps for the same URL, and also (optionally) have them be completely sandboxed from each other.

Walmart on Hermit returns "Request Rejected"
We've seen reports of this exact error message, but there's no clear way for us as a browser maker to help debug.
Our best guess is that there's some web framework somewhere that's doing some non-standard verification that Hermit does not pass, presumably because of the tight privacy restrictions that Hermit enables by default.
If you have a way to contact the web admins, that would be really helpful. Even if you can figure out which specific web framework this is, we can try to look into it.

The state of Playstore
Reply in thread
Not exactly. It's possible to make an app run on older versions (select lower minSdk) and yet take advantage of newer features (select higher targetSdk). This one can be easily be fixed by the F-Droid developers like almost all other developers have already.
Droidify is amazing, I'd totally recommend that over the official F-Droid client any time. 👍

Not sure how Samsung does it, we (the app, Hermit) pass it a square icon, and the launcher is supposed to take it and display it however it sees fit.
Have you tried the Touch-and-Hold method to see if it works better?

Managing bookmarks across browsers? - OFFLINE
Did you mean “offline” as in not online (which makes little sense for a browser), or more like “not tied to a specific service that may hold your data hostage or infringe upon your privacy”?
If the latter, then I've found that a simple HTML file with manually added entries works great. I've set it as the home page in all my browsers. I retain full control over content and layout as well.)
