I've felt this way a few times. But whenever I think about building some of my personal apps as desktop only to reduce the hosting burden I remember that I want to access a lot of that data on mobile too and getting sqlite to sync around to my mobile device is a real pain (not to mention now having to build a mobile app to read it).

Web apps are just real convenient on the usage side even if I loathe building them most of the time.
