For me, something being an electron app isn't the worst thing in the world. What is problematic is the JavaScript ecosystem. I use and occasionally contribute to a distro that's very strict about all dependencies of an application also being packaged in the distro. That's just infeasible for most JavaScript apps these days; most that I've seen have on the order of 500-1000 dependencies.
