From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I don’t care about the packaging format so much as about either having a Qt or GTK version or even just being able to open it in my browser.
There is Flare. I haven't used it myself because it's not official and I don't know what it will do to e.g. my backups, but just sharing in case you're interested.
I'll try it out and see how it works.
Same, trying to use and a lot of javascript errors, reopening 3 times to show up
Well, the .deb only works on Ubuntu and derivates so that doesnt really matter
What do you mean?
I didnt get your scentence. Yes I agree having a native Qt/Slint version would be cool. But the code still needs to be packaged for distros and Electron is horrible but solves like everything for them.
