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.
