Those platforms exist: desktop and mobile. People are so enamoured with the web and/or have no experience outside the web, and so don't know how insanely more performant almost literally everything outside the web is.
Sorry, but no. You‘re wrong. „Desktop“ isn‘t a platform, it‘s a loose term for native applications running directly on your OS. „Desktop“ is extremely fragmented: Windows, MacOS, Linux. The latter is fragmented as well.
I will gladly take every disadvantage of the web to deliver my products to every platform. The alternative is not shipping to MacOS and Linux systems.
