I'd suggest that for a lot of users, Procreate is the closest thing to a "killer app" that's iPad only and emerged organically from a third party.

Leaving behind a mark was tougher than creating a world.

So gas is the bigger problem to resolve. We need to get rid of them all eventually.
Re:1password is considering a self-hosted option to store vaults

I moved away from LastPass to 1Password as LastPass changed their app to Electron and it was immediately slower and less usable. On a 32GB RAM machine. But just things like resizing the window were worse. Not always true for Electron, but it made me change in this case.
