> if you can do things in a native desktop app, you're almost always better off than with a browser based solution

The reason fewer and fewer people are doing this are more to do with funding. So if I were to build software today, I'd instantly go with web-apps so that I can monetize them as much as I want.

Web app software has zero issues with piracy and in built regular cash flow model which everyone wants.

Find a way to fund desktop apps and make them as easy to build like web apps and they'll be vogue again.
