I wonder how the move from x86 to arm is going to affect desktop apps. With the move to ARM apple is already pushing it's iOS apps into MacOS. Once it becomes commonplace on Windows, it would be super easy to run Android Apps on Windows via simulation(rather than emulation which is much slower).
Given that mobile apps are more lightweight and consume far less resources than their electron counterparts, would people prefer to use those instead? Especially if their UIs were updated to support larger desktop screens.
Why do you think mobile apps are more lightweight?
Android phones these days have at least 4GB or RAM and mobile apps are in general more limited plus you run fewer of them in parallel as they tend to be offloaded from RAM once the limit is reached.
