Mmmm, I don't think this is fair when discussing Linux. If Electron didn't exist, there's a good chunk of apps that just wouldn't exist on Linux at all.

Doesn't change the fact that if people valued consistency, those apps would be flops on all supported platforms.

People value tools that do what they need to do over consistency, but that does not mean that they do not value consistency.
