I've been messing around with this since starting a new job and using Google products lacking stand alone apps (chat), and sadly Jira.
For Jira, I like having multiple tabs. Safari doesn't support multiple tabs. I can't remember why I bailed on FF PWA, but I'm using the free version of WebCatalog (limit 2 PWAs). It gets the internal/external link operations correct without any hassle or inconsistencies.
