These are server apps. This guy is talking about end user apps more.
Example: I prefer to run Google Earth desktop instead of Earth in a browser. It's faster, has more features and doesn't suck up as much memory.
I use Notepad++ instead of google docs for most note taking.
I use Kusto Explorer desktop instead of Azure Data Explorer.
Outlook desktop instead of OWA.
There are exceptions. The facebook messenger app I prefer in a browser, because, do I trust Facebook software to not scrape my screen and send it back to FB servers? I would much prefer it to live in my taskbar as a discrete app otherwise.
