We need to get back to apps rather than webapps. The hardware compatibility issues of the past are basically no longer here, and there are three major OS types two of which can use each other's apps.

Pretty much the opposite. Local-first makes web apps feel just like apps, without the native-apps security risks.

Perhaps, but then how will they be authored? In what language and with what GUI toolkit?
I view everyone flocking around Electron as proof of a failure on this front.
