C has a much bigger baggage. I assume a big chunk of C is modern version of compilers is fairly gotcha free. But even the core basic part of Web is full of gotcha. Just the fact that you need to start with a normalize.css is reason enough. And as they fix compatibility in 1 things, they seem to add 10 more. Maybe I'm wrong and clueless. But web seems to be a bastion for adding overly complex solutions while failing at trivial things often enough not always. I agree it is probably still the cheapest way to get a cross platform GUI at least maintenance wise. But it is a pile of electricity sucking horrendous crap regardless or at least a big part of it. More frustratingly I'm not sure that it has to be the case.
