Apart from the argument of different expectations discussed in the sibling comment, there is the fact that those behemoth apps you use are largely not developed with modern toolkits. Most of them are 30-year-old piles of C++ hacks, built to work on operating systems that don't even exist anymore and badly patched, year after year, to keep up with OS vendors' agendas. Unsurprisingly, they screw up from time to time.
The funny thing is that, despite thall this, often those piles of hacks are still compared favourably with Electron apps and browser-based apps.
