Should there be a desktop app?

Advantages

  • Fewer e621 API restrictions
    • Post favoriting would no longer need a proxy
    • The bulk downloader could be implemented again

Disadvantages

  • Could cause security issues if it is not properly maintained
  • Automatic updates will be more complicated than with the web version
  • Electron is way too bulky and other solutions (like tauri) are not ready for production yet
  • Someone would have to test windows and mac versions

Anything else I missed?
