You completely missed the fact that this is built using Avalonia, which means that you can run this on desktop (win, linux, osx), mobile (android or ios) AND browser (using wasm) with almost the same codebase. check https://github.com/BAndysc/AvaloniaVisualBasic6, and feel free to try the desktop ones.

The second part was an adjacent complain about the generic trend of putting things to the web too much. As it is obvious. It wasn't about this very project (the "putting everything" =/= 'putting Avalonia based Visual Basic 6', obviously, even the 'everything' is a rhetoric expression here used widespread in generic discussions and not a literal 100%, obviously). Please review it carefully this time, thanks.
