Why don't you turn your website into a real app (Progressive Web Apps/PWA)?

Simple instructions for converting the website can be found here.

The icons for all platforms can be created here. The icon Json for the manifest is also generated there at the same time.

An example of an (almost) complete manifest can be found here:

By the way, Twitter is also an example of a good PWA!

btw as a side note, might want to look into inverting the page title from XXX - Bluesky to Bluesky - XXX or even remove the app name entirely from page title if PWA is detected

this is because Chrome tries to omit the app name off the page title, but it only does so if the page title starts with the app name.

Doing XXX - Bluesky would just make the actual window title be Bluesky - XXX - Bluesky
