Beats me how this kind of thinking works, always excuses instead of evaluating the technology on its merits and the experience it offers. Sometimes I feel like it's the community that actually hinders the transition towards more decentralized FOSS-style ecosystem (on this website it is more likely to be simply bad faith arguments).
p.s.: I'm daily driving Ghidra currently which is built with Java Swing and it looks like straight out of 90s in a bad way haha
On a tangent and I also don't know how others would view this, but I personally think that trivial desktop applications have or will have moved on to solutions like (but not exactly server-sided) Phoenix Liveview or Blazor Server. No real need to bother with multi-platform solutions when there's already one the end user uses daily and is battle tested. The case of applications needing the usage of a GPU likes games aside that is.
