These projects completely overlook _why_ people choose Electron over the system view.

- Nobody wants to be testing against multiple browser/rendering engines in 2019.

- Nobody wants to wait for a vendor to update their implementation when Chrome has the feature available almost immediately.

Edit: Since I can already see the litany of armchair-quarterback-desktop-app-authors, I'm just going to link to the comment from the guy who actually migrated Slack away from WKWebView.
