Native app != Electron app (fortunately!) The less of that bloated slow crap the better.

  If we had to make non-electron, native version of our app, that would mean Windows[1] and Android, because that's where the current users are. Forget the rest. Is that the future you want? [1] And they would not be happy about that either. For many that would mean RDP or Citrix. They prefer webapp right now.

    I think apple DOES want this. Core markets cleanly segmented are probably a better value prop to apple than everything working everywhere and users being able to freely migrate between platforms

    Sure, keep your (likely crummy if you’re OK with Citrix as a primary use case) Windows and Android apps. The market will decide. Your comment is just on the user-hostile side of assuming it will prefer your technology choices.

      It would only be citrix if it was made a native app. It is presently a web app, presumably because it was determined to be a better choice. You proposed that it should be a native app. It would be the customers that would choose Citrix, but they'd probably prefer web apps (if they're anything like my customers). The deployment story is so much better for web apps, which is the main reason it seems to be so compelling for big enterprises.
