I spend a lot of time with k9s, a TUI, and if there's a browser based or native GUI version, I don't care.
Terminals provide a uniform experience everywhere, more or less, and they compose better than browser apps. I can run tmux in asciinema and from there I can ssh elsewhere and use k9s. fzf and my zsh history make it so that it requires a few keystrokes to do anything (contrast this with being at the mercy of several conflicting designer opinions). A bunch of browser tabs is a comparatively clunky experience.
If web or native GUI apps interoperate, it's because their authors had a conversation. Terminal apps interoperate by accident.
