I wouldn't mind seeing WPF, or a descendent, ported to other platforms. Xamarin Forms, Eto Forms, and a lot of other wrappers already do a lot of that though, if you want cross platform gui from .Net. (god that looks sloppy)
I also tend to agree that for good, or bad, that Electron will probably grow significantly as an application base. Like I see node becoming the defacto runtime for WebAssembly, I see Electron taking that place for WebAssembly + UI. And I don't think it's all that bad.
Even with MS, Electron seems to be their unified UI target for a lot of apps. VS Code, Teams, Azure SQL Studio (or whatever the name is now), and don't see that space shrinking. I'm only surprised that Teams doesn't have an official Linux version.
