I write mostly desktop and command line tools for my day job. While there's benefits to writing a web app which can do everything for a user, the main desktop app I develop and share with colleagues sits on top of user permissions that they have to negotiate themselves. The reason for it: Compliance. Having a self-service tool which just automates work a user can do themselves using their existing permissions, instead of a centrally managed one where there's a service account used for the work is less likely to be killed off because of compliance issues, or identified as "shadow IT", or just outright denied the right to exist because I can't get a corporate sponsor to host it. My personal projects I also prefer writing the same way, with scripts, commandline tools, or desktop apps. For example: I wanted to download every episode of a podcast in one go recently, and discovered that most podcatchers suck these days and the one I used to use is broken on Win10. So I banged out a script in an hour or so do to the job, rather than use some half-functional bloated mobile or web app.
