Open source would make them an instant credible leader, major fumble (still can be fixed)

The framing here assumes you need to ship native to all 3 platforms to justify leaving Electron. You don't.

I've been building a native macOS AI client in Swift — it's 15MB, provider-agnostic, and open source: https://github.com/dinoki-ai/osaurus

Committing to one platform well beats a mediocre Electron wrapper on all three.

Staff-level engineer (15+ yrs) with experience across FAANG and startups. I specialize in shipping polished UIs fast, integrating AI features (LLMs, agents, RAG), and designing user-first tools.
