> most GUIs should just be web.
Hard disagree. Most web interfaces are worse than most native UIs. Inconsistent rendering, keyboard shortcuts and navigation between apps, slow response times, and more.
There's a reason everyone who knows what Electron is bashes every "native" app built with Electron.
yeah--the reason is the bloat and overhead electron brings.
nobody cares about the web layer
You're ignoring all of the other things I said.
Keyboard shortcuts, navigation, and more are inconsistent in web apps. Will they work at all? Will they use different keys? No one knows. Will they respect my OS theming? What about my font choices or font sizes? Almost certainly not.
