A lot of people started to refer to Qt as native around Electron's time. The only place where Qt is native as such in on a KDE Plasma/LxQt desktop.

You're correct, although Qt attempts to do fake native widgets on Win / Mac, and given how relatively lightweight it is compared to Electron, it's understandable how it became a obviously point of contrast with the latter, which doesn't even pretend to be native. Given a choice between the two I will obviously take fake native widgets over nothing.

I, on the other hand, will take whichever widgets have the better accessibility implementation. Currently Electron beats Qt on this.
