A reality check to those who want to push apps and more workloads into the browser (via WASM, PWAs/excessive JavaScript, or whatever), with the browser becoming a gatekeeper. Not only is the browser a laughably complicated app runtime that isn't capable to do anything with local files (so you need "services" to store your eg. photos), it's also blatantly power-inefficient and a privacy catastrophe. Where has the idea of personal computing shared by a whole generation gone?
