@zachleat I would say it depends. Ports are annoying when you need a series of apps (ex; API service A, etc) to run to do what you need and all apps want to start at the same port. Because; defaults.
Would love a local discovery thing which would give apps a random port and then apps find each other based on something else than the port locally.

The U.K. accelerates toward police state status, by requiring the equivalent of a license to read and speak online. Worse, it drastically undermines your personal security.
The US is moving this way, too. Wake up, people, because it's almost too late.
Take action! What’s the problem? The Government has proposed amendments to the Children Wellbeing and Schools Bill, which would give Ministers the power to restrict access to "internet services". This is supposed to give the Government the power to ban under 16s from social media but “internet services" is a very broad definition, which means any online platform can be included. The wording of the amendment means they could do this without even having to prove that these sites are harmful for children.
The core of this is spot on.
Though; Add Tauri as an alternative to Electron and one cover the gated mobile app segment as well.
