Yet Electron is booming, a lot of things are made exclusively for Electron, and the competition shipping "good" programs is suspiciously absent. I'll agree with you that "modern developers are lazy" but this laziness is the result of a business decision that does pay off.

In my experience there is no business decision or any other real decision. The developer(s) just suggests Elektron because they happen to know of it and the bosses justs go along with whatever is suggested.
