Especially that every desktop app re-packages a whole web browser is infuriating me, as it could easily be avoided. The operating system should just provide a web browser library, that can be dynamically linked by each application. It's such an easy solution but it isn't used :(

Don't forget the next step in the evolution: each web browser ships inside its own entire operating system container

There is a project called tauri that uses the web browser libraries provided by operating systems. The problem is that each operating system has a different browser library, so features may not be supported or can work differently. Browser vendors seem allergic to actually following the standards for some reason.
