I am a big fan and user of keyboard shortcuts, and web apps make
using those either weird and inconsistent with what you'd
expect, or simply impossible. A user interface without support
for keyboard shortcuts is not viable for productive use imho.
Web apps built with modern frameworks often can't even be used
by Vim plugins in the browser, either because scrolling doesn't
work, or the frameworks and scripts do so much black magic in
the background that not a single button in the GUI is recognised
as clickable element by the Vim plugin. Broken by design.
Not to mention all the performance issues and productivity
blockers thanks to tracking, no support for right
click(and its context menus) etc., instead we get animations
which also add input lag to everything because it looks fancy.
