This is funny because you just listed a bunch of cross platform software.

The argument is not about cross platform software. It’s about native client software.

Office is not written using one of the cross platform frameworks and is usually only around 3-9 months behind when it comes to taking advantage of new features as Apple releases them.

Plex is server software. The UI is a web page.

R# itself is a plug-in only for Visual Studio for Windows. Yes Rider is cross platform, but I don’t have a need for it.

The only other software I mentioned are games. No one expects a native experience from games.
