I encountered such programs in the past. It's basically simple HTML with JavaScript, to run with my "favorite" browser and not being packaged as an Electron app. But that is very rare. Still better than dependent on the server, which solves a huge issue (which was my point). But the other point isn't solved, if the person is "forced" to use a browser he or she does not like.
