Your reminder if you're a Linux user to be careful what you wish for; a lot of things only work on Linux because it was made easy enough to support it through cross-platform tooling, particularly the tools that people complain about a lot like Electron and Java.
I have been using Linux for a long time, and the alternative to "half-assed cross-platform things" is usually "nothing at all" - and I can assure you that that was worse than what we have now.
@joepie91 I firmly believe that the success the Linux desktop has seen would not have happened nearly to same degree if the industry hadn't moved toward web tech for a lot or apps.
@sasha I feel similarly.
That's not to say that we shouldn't be pushing for continuous improvements in software and tools.
But like, make sure you actually understand where the problems lie first, and that you understand the consequences of what you're campaigning for. And adjust your goals accordingly.
