Interesting take on comparability vs performance. I gotta imaging capturing user data and sending to a cloud collector is also a big culprit.

I do worry however that as more and more programmers focus on web apps that we will eventually see the same problem on Linux as well.

I wouldn't worry about it. If it becomes a problem in Linux, there would have already been an implosion in Windows land and I am pretty sure people will start to notice and come up with better solutions. I honestly don't understand why web apps have to bundle their own Electron builds instead of just sharing a common installation of specific versions of Electron.
