meh, if it's a single developer, asking native apps for every platform on a donation ware doesn't seem fair to me.

No, I mean in the general case of web apps replacing desktop apps. I'm not convinced Atom for example will ever overcome its pain points that are a result of the technology it uses (breaking down on larger files, slowness, GC pauses etc).

Of course for smaller shops, donation or freeware etc, it's fine.

And for apps like Slack, which are glorified web pages.
