Yea, electron has flaws, but it's basically the only way to make a truly cross platform native and web app. I would rather take a larger installed size and actually have apps that are available everywhere.

The sad truth is there aren't enough developers to go around to make sleek native apps for every platform, so something that significantly frees dev time is a great real world solution for that.
