This gives me hope that we can get native apps back again, and collaborative work through them without the browser or a central authority

- kridsdale1 2y agoMany of us never stopped writing native apps. When I was at Apple (2010-2015) every app was Local First. In fact they legally had to be to be sold in Germany, where iCloud cannot be mandatory (they have a history of user data being abused). You’ll notice when the network goes down all your calendars email contacts and photos are still there. The source of truth is distributed. Client side apps writing to local db with background sync (application specific protocols) works excellently. You just don’t write your UI as a web page.
