I'm not saying that native controls are better because they are native. Or electron is suffering from some defects that impair usability. With equal time and effort, a software built with native controls will be more usable. A random user will not be able to distinguish which is which, but I dare say that the native ones would felt better if the only difference is what is used to build the interface.
When designing native controls and using common patterns of the OS, you lessen considerably the amount of efforts required to learn that application for the user of the platform. Most non-technical users only use one platform. Creating the same interface for two or more platforms is impairing users on that platform. And I include the web as a platform.
