gollark: That's applications' fault.
gollark: The web is actually not too slow thanks to tons of optimization work, WASM, and very fast JITs.
gollark: If someone made a shiny new platform *anyway*, it would lose a significant convenience feature the browser has: you can embed application-y stuff into your regular site, and conveniently use a hypertextâ„¢ link to go to your application or whatever.
