@santi @obrhoff @helge Oh yes, TUIs ftw
Have you seen https://ratatui.rs ? It's soo delicious-looking.. and technically futuristic - most of Star Trek's LCARS always felt like a TUI

@obrhoff @helge 7 years! Wow time flies. In my mind SwiftUI is still a beta... and the funny thing is, front-end world is moving away from these kinds of component systems. I wonder what's the future like in Apple's mind

@helge @obrhoff Every stack has trade-offs - not disputing that. I was just wondering why so often this conversation devolves into hate and absolutism. You say Slack, Codex, Signal and others may be better as native apps but perhaps it doesn't matter to them to be native apps because don't endeavour to be a showcase of Apple's HIG for example. In fact, I believe Signal has a much better experience on macOS than say the "flagship" iMessage client. I wish we see apps in function of their purpose

@obrhoff I was recently working on an Electron app for a client and the fact that it gives one access to a proper, mature, well-thought out rendering system was an absolute joy.

I honestly don't remember where the hate towards this architecture originates
