Is that true? The things people use native desktop applications for nowadays tend to be exactly those which aren't just neat content displays. Spreadsheets, terminals, text-editors, CAD software, compilers, video games, photo-editing software. The only things I can think of that I use as just text/image displays are the file-explorer and image/media-viewer apps, of which there are really only a handful on any given OS.

You could argue that spreadsheets and terminals are just text with extra features! I'm joking though, but web apps usually are more than just text and images too.
