That’s why I like Chrome’s (and various Chromium browsers’) ability to app-ify sites. Will create a .app in MacOS, .desktop in Linux, etc. Launches as what looks like an independent app with its own dock/launcher icon. Utilizes most of their PWA stuff.
Sadly, it looks like Chrome has hidden the option completely in the latest version unless you set a flag that will probably go away in a few releases. Edge makes it pretty clear.
I wish Firefox would bring the feature back. They deprecated it years ago and I use it heavily (only reason/time I use Chromium stuff on most of my machines)
I know it from Android and I was using it quite frequently as well. But in my opinion it’s better as a website alternative, compared to being a complete replacement for apps. Things are less buggy and more smooth for me that way.
I fail to understand how opening a web site, which is all a browser does, can be defined as ‘cluttered’, but my use case is security while appears yours is to let corpos rummage through your files.
It’s inconvenient and disorganized to have it as an extra tab (taking up tab space) or browser window (same symbols), also it runs smoother for me within the app.

I care about UX & seems like I’m not the only one at that. If I would care about privacy and security I wouldn’t use discord, but matrix or sth.
It works better for me as an app. I don’t like my browsers to be cluttered like that. But if it fits your usecase

As long as you don’t care about security, no problems.
