People are self-interested. Electron only offers the maker of the tool value but not the end user. The end user finds AI extremely valuable and the costs are on the maker.
If we could convince all the people who hate Electron to code GUI stacks across the major programming languages that exist, maybe then we could get somewhere. Electron just gives you a consistent cross-platform environment to develop GUIs on using one of the most well known and understood technologies: front-end web.
