Web apps have largely had terrible performance compared to native even on my development machine. Everything moving to the browser is a regression in isolation, increase of complexity, and a poor use of resources given that the application works fine without. Dependency management and packaging complexity become an issue to the point where projects refuse to package such applications.

Web Assembly might be a way to provide web app support in addition to native but it should never replace native.

Also, energy efficiency is starting to play a greater role here in the EU where hopefully it encourages less use of energy hungry frameworks and more native applications given their better resource use.
