To be fair, OP was clearly talking about native apps. My 2c: an Electron app looks "alien" (for lack of a better word) on every platform that supports it. Especially so when it implements deep integration like a menu bar widget. One would expect it to obey the operating system human interface guidelines. This in itself makes it unsuited for the task. Even more so when the main reason to use electron (code reuse and ease of porting to other platforms) is not fully realized (as this appears to be mac-only).
