Boot2Gecko is a thing: it's called KaiOS. It targets lower tech devices though and is just as locked down as Android, potentially even more actually.
I'm interested: why do you want it? I'm not a big fan of the idea of web development being the standard
I, too, hate web dev being the standard. It's inevitable though. Mostly OS agnostic, easy to learn, etc.
I don't see why it's inevitable at all. Browsers are incredibly useful and will always have their place, but they don't have to be everything. Why would you say it's inevitable? There are plenty of other OS agnostic frameworks on which to build programs, and not everything actually has to be OS agnostic imo. I don't write anything with Windows in mind :)
If you write desktop software and don't ship a Windows version, that's like 90% of users you're missing out on. Android vs iOS you lose half. Not everyone wants to learn C++ for qt and by the time you get to things like Flutter, might as well use Tauri and some lightweight js framework.
Not an issue if you only do FOSS, but commercial software is always about lowest possible cost to build
