I couldnt disagree more. Many/most of the apps the author lists as "let's write more of these!" are EXCLUSIVE to Macs. Of course it's much easier to develop a native app if that's the only platform you target.

Hell, the author even self promotes his own app as a model to follow. Surprise surprise the only supported platform is Mac.

I don't think it's realistic to expect every company, regarless of size, to redevelop their application in native toolkits for every platform. It's much better overall to develop a one-size-fits-all solution, and Electron is obviously one of the more popular tools for doing this.

Now, I definitely support a leaner cross-platform framework, but advocating that companies "use Apple’s own tools and toolkits, and stick closely to them" is fanboyism at it's most extreme.
