There is a bugzilla entry that states the removal was due to too little user benefit for the development effort required. And since I don’t necessarily need this feature, I can understand they directed the resources to where they are needed more. Nevertheless, it would be nice to have.
The way I use it is primarily for applications that produce audio output, so I get appropriately named per-app volume sliders in pulseaudio/pipewire and not just a bunch of audio streams titled “Firefox”.
They dropped it during or right after (can’t remember for sure) their massive layoffs where they fired like half of their best employees for no reason, that’s also when Servo died! :(
I use Brave as a secondary browser for PWAs on the desktop. I wish Firefox would support it again.
what do you need PWA support for? any clue why Mozilla reduced/removed support?

Thank you for the excellent answers to both of my questions! I understand your earlier comment perfectly now 👌
