If long-term stability is what you want, perhaps a desktop application is what you need.
That last chapter is totally bullshit for me. Something like 'choose Your operating system and write the app there' ... great, but with interfaces/applications written to work in browsers You are not tied to the operating system. Going further that direction, which operating system the 'not-web' application developers would choose ... if You wonder, then let me help You here, the most popular one.

Linux is not UNIX! Face it! It is not an insult. It is fact: GNU is a recursive acronym for “GNU's Not UNIX”.
