I'm not sure which is worse. I mean most desktop programs are just glorified web browsers anyway (i.e Electron)

What do you mean, "most?" Electron apps are the vast minority of desktop apps.

I mean look at the most used applications these days, discord, Spotify, teams, steam, vscode, slack, etc

They might not all exactly be electron but theyre all secretly browsers.
