What DO people use for (cross-platform) desktop applications these days? Find it hard to believe Electron is the only one.

I don't know if cross-platform applications are very popular anymore. Most of the good software I use is either single platform using native code, or it's Qt or it's electron. Only rare cases use something else.

Sublime has their own cross-platform native widget system

Jetbrains/minecraft use Java

Spotify is chromium, discord is chromium, thunderbird is firefoxium, Obsidian is chromium, steam is (probably?) chromium.

Most software that I know is cross-platform uses Qt otherwise; qbittorrent (duh), Transmission, KeepassXC, VLC (mostly, but also uses other GUI frameworks sometimes), Calibre, Krita, OBS

Qt is a popular choice. And as a user, apps made with Qt are pleasant to use.

Tauri, Qt.

But I'd think Electron has more than 80% of the market.
