That's silly - if anything it's the other way around. Web tools have a ridiculous degree of corporate backing, especially with the countless libraries from Facebook and Google (React, Angular, Go, Dart, Flow, IMMUTABLE, etc.), and even Microsoft with TypeScript and others. Meanwhile, Make and friends don't have any corporate backing.

Plus IE and Chrome, fwiw
