How do you figure? The web platform is more or less controlled by the duopoly of Apple & Google, the two dominant browser developers. Toss in Firefox for the outliers and that's the entirety of the platform as is able to exist - the web is too complicated for anyone else to join (case in point, see previously major players, like Microsoft, giving up at it). If you just mean distribution then that's also not true. Android, Windows, MacOS (although this is eroding), and Linux all have open publishing of native applications.
