Issue with desktop app is doing updates, pushing updates/hotfixes to all of them and then works for some and not for others, instead of webapps you only update the host and test on different browsers. thats all.

If you say so. Telegram for example updates in half a second on my Windows gaming machine, and having a daily update script on my Mac and Linux machines is easy as hell.

Sure many people don't update like ever, but Apple's and Microsoft's app stores do updates without asking people anyway (they learned, finally).

Not such a big problem as you make it out to be IMO, even for very casual non-technical users.
