I’m a big fan of native UI, but I doubt this particular claim. The web stack is almost certainly more performance than GTK, for example.

Apologies, when I say native software, I don't just mean the UI.

I don't agree on this count either. You can have performance and maintainability by writing your business logic in a daemon. Only very few applications will find this IPC cost unacceptable, and WASM promises to raise the performance ceiling even further. There are lots of good arguments for native software, but I don't find the performance argument to be particularly compelling.
