I seem to be the only one with some degree of success with Tauri :)

After someone suggested here in HN I switched Microlandia[1] from deno-webview[2] to Tauri.

So far, it’s been a pretty good experience in Windows and macOS, of all the bug reports I received, zero are related to Tauri. Only one caveat: For Steam Linux, I had to package the game in electron after spending an entire weekend in library hell trying to get it to work in the Steamworks sniper SDK.

I've also had some degree of success with Tauri but not without pains. But to be fair most of the pains have come from the state of Linux DE (it's absolute hell if you ask me)

For the most part, things just work on MacOS (Windows I don't use much, but I don't get that many bug reports from Windows, so it must work alright. I would guess I have 50k Windows users?).

I don't have any experience with Electron, but in many ways I assume it probably is much more robust of an experience than Tauri. A lot of stuff has felt shaky to me, yet it does work. It's just not always a confidence inspiring experience. But again, maybe this is just the state of cross platform experiences generally? I don't know because I don't have enough experience to say
