Well since we now have 10x the memory and 10x the compute we are able to do this.

Also, you don't need no stinkin App Store, zero time for installation. The only next step would be to have everything open source I think these are good tradeoffs. I rather have Freedom than performance and more and more tech users are doing this.

Justifying everything becoming a web app to avoid app stores seems to me a lot like swallowing a spider to catch the fly.

Agree. I seriously do not understand what is so hard about going to a website and downloading a program. It takes literally all of 30 seconds.
