Now that at least Windows, Chrome OS, and soon macOS properly support PWAs it will finally get feasible to add web apps to your desktop environment. I know I’ll upgrade to the new macOS ASAP just to get rid of slack.

It will still be a browser and a modern "app" done by people who think guis should refresh at 120 fps instead of just when something changed on screen...
