In regards to Mozilla creating an Electron alternative, they already tried that. It was called Proton and it never caught on but was solely bleeding money so they had to shut it down again.
Proton was never mature or stable so saying it "never caught on" is a bit of a joke. It was never released.
It also wasn't equivalent to Electron for a bunch of big architectural reasons related to required changes to Gecko that the team never prioritises because Proton wasn't a priority project.
> was solely bleeding money
Yes. Because unreleased in-progress projects should be profitable before they're released in order to be viable. How much money was it bleeding? Do you have eyes on these accounts?
