We should make webapps for everythink. When done properly they are as fast as native apps, can work on any device and do not require a dev license or account.

Completely agreed. Nowadays we even have WASM that can run more advanced things, and may even give w3bapps sandboxed capabilities, and can be run natively on any device with a WASM runtime.
