I really miss desktop apps. They worked so well and didn't have half the problems that come with web apps.

I'm working on a project, for fun not for money, that uses Golang and talks to a SQLite database for things like accounts and user content. So far I really enjoy writing it a lot but I have to admit that it would probably have issues if it scaled to a large number of users.

In fairness to SQLite it was designed in a different era technologically. Maybe there will be a replacement for the web app era if we distill what we like about SQLite
