Cross platform design philosophy

I understand a part for you deciding to go for Electron on the front end was so that the Apps could all look and feel as close as possible to each other across the various...
There are excellent apps that use Electro such as Slack, VS code (One of the best code editors if not the best), Discord, WordPress are just a few of them and the list I believe will keep being bigger over time as more and more apps require to work cross platforms.
These are awful apps, some of which I admittedly do use on a daily basis - but because I have to, not because they're so great (e.g. Slack).
I use a Mac because I care about a consistent user experience across apps, not just within each app across platforms.
There is not enough lipstick you can put on an Electron pig to make that happen. I've been using 1PW8 for a day now, it looks sort of like a Mac app if you squint hard enough, but boy does it start to grate when you try and actually use it :(
