    I’m not sure which is worse. I mean most desktop programs are just glorified web browsers anyway (i.e Electron)

        Electron apps are the vast minority of desktop apps.

        I mean look at the most used applications these days, discord, Spotify, teams, steam, vscode, slack, etc

        They might not all exactly be electron but theyre all secretly browsers.

        okay. but every game launcher you have is web based. all the software management for my server is done through a web browser. the amount of time i spend in web based programs is many magnitudes more than the time i spend in software that is using other systems. even the games you play have web based interfaces for their ingame stores and other social/news features.

      But you can use more shortcuts!

      I hate editors in browser. With Chrome at least --kiosk turns them in proper apps. In Firefox it’s impossible to turn off browser shortcuts and use them to work.

      What barbarian do they think I am, using a mouse to do stuff on my editor. I need long complex absurd keyboard shortcuts to function
