theSoenke··on Electron considered harmful
The problem is there is no really alternative. Or what alternatives exist to write good looking, cross platform desktop applications with reasonable effort? I don't think there really is one.

If there is one distro i have to recommend it's Solus. I'm usually not a fan of new distro xyz were not much except the wallpaper changed.

It also has a very high velocity were every time you look there are new amazing improvements
