Especially, most of these chat apps have functionally similar web/PWA apps. In those cases, I prefer to install them as desktop PWAs or use Chrome's "Create shortcut" feature to get them into my Dock/Taskbar.

One little bonus is that my browser extensions also apply to these installed PWAs. For example, the Todoist PWA now shows me the Toggle icon next to each task as an easy shortcut to start the time tracker.

In my case, I have these running as Chrome PWAs:

  - Raindrop.io
  - Grammarly Editor
  - Todoist
  - Discord
  - Element
  - Whatsapp
  - Twitter

And these are still running as regular Electron/CEF apps:

  - 1Password
  - Obsidian
  - VSCode
  - Gitkraken
  - Slack
  - Spotify

Whenever the web alternative catches up with the Electron app, I move to the PWA. Probably the biggest drawback of this is that Firefox is not a suitable alternative for me anymore :( https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1407202

I can't believe the 32bit Spotify thing, I have had it happened to me a few times where it exceeded that 4GB threshold and I had to restart it.
