You know that “no app” and “not using the app” is the exact same user experience right? So you can just not use the app and stop complaining about it existing.
The same reason why webapps are a bad idea. We’ve built monstrous browser engines to do fancy stuff to pages in a bonkers language in a sandbox, and the resulting abomination is neither pages nor apps. And now we’re like: we have so much expertise in shuffling page parts around to look like they’re apps, let’s build “real” apps out of them. It’s like rejecting headphones and towing a car with broken windows around with you just in case you’ll wanna listen to music: it technically works, but makes negative sense.
We are aware, and we’d take “no app” any day, thank you.

“Not using the app” means instead of developing a real one, I’m being pointed at an abomination.
This means not installing app AKA open in browser
Idk who you think you’re speaking for, but I don’t think it’s as many people as you think lol.
Besides an electron app you don’t use and no app are literally the same thing, so why choose nothing?
Electron app I don’t use is less chances to get a normal app.
Making a normal app costs much more than making an electron app, so I press X

Dumping a trashbin into your backyard is even cheaper, doesn’t mean it’s a remotely good idea tho.
So, why is electron a bad idea?
