Web apps are better than no apps

There's a certain community in tech that's very vocal about their preference toward native apps. I share that sentiment, yet sometimes people take this idea too religiously. Unfortunately, the actual choice is about having an app or not, and I'd rather take something over nothing.

I mean, sure, but that doesn't negate the fact that web applications - or, more specifically, Electron and Electron-like applications - are just bad. Any time I see an Electron application offered, I instantly know the developers behind the project do not respect me as a user. They choose their own convenience over my experience as a user, and while that's a perfectly valid choice they can make, it does mean I'm not going to use your service.
