And run-time is shifting to web:
Most desktop applications I know are being moved (or have moved) to the web.
I believe that soon, the only native apps left will be services and apps that
need hardware access (automation etc.)
Well, using Zoom a lot the last months, it taught me that this desktop app
solution is much better than any browser based video conferencing system
and probably the reason why Zoom apparently won the video conferencing
system race.
I don't know about that.
In my experience, jitsi does a good job, at least as good as Zoom.
Many web-based platforms try to correct too many things at the server level,
and performance suffers from this of course. Jitsi sends streams as-is.
My point was that there is a definite shift towards web, and I think we must
provide the tools to help people with that.
Which is not to say that we should abandon desktop, of course.
