I had the exact same experience and switched from Tauri 2.0 to Electron after a month.
No only were there UI inconsistencies, but Safari lags behind chrome with things like the Popover API and the build/codesign/CD ecosystem for Tauri is incredibly scattered.
When I was using it, IAPs were still not really an option for Tauri or at least I could not find any docs or resources about it.
Same here. We went with Electron mainly for consistency and stability. The larger bundle size wasn’t an issue for our particular project, so the decision was pretty straightforward.
Im pretty happy with it currently, but want to fix a small annoyance where columns can "hijack" horizontal scrolling.
I learned SO MUCH about CSS tools of old and new doing this project. The popover API and anchor positioning in particular was a bit of a beast, as were overflows and scroll areas.
Most of my background has been in native or react-native mobile development where these kinds of issues don't really exist in the same way.
Going back to basics with html + css was humbling and taught me a lot, too.
For those of us with a black and white remarkable like RM2 could you add a setting to set all text to black including links? The blue washes out to gray.
Also setting the journal prompts to black would be wonderful - they are hard to see unlike the articles.
I was planning on building this but never got around to it. After getting this set up its perfectly fine for my needs. Is there a way we can pay for it or at least tip you? I know the servers aren't crazy expensive but I'd love to support the work and hope it sticks around a while!
Second this, Assistant is a game-changer for me. Its the usefulness of AI with footnotes that give me confidence that I can know where that came from and if I trust it. Especially for product reviews, being able to use lenses that filter out sites I don't trust and then run AI on top of it is pretty cool.

I have been using http://www.Perplexity.AI since January 2023 for this exact reason. Unfortunately, since that incredible first UI (of yesteryear) it has been downgraded extensively (including no longer displaying footnotes, just adding numerals to the ends of factual sentences with tooltips).
The greatest thing about Perplexity is still that you do not have to log in (although it will bug you, particularly after lengthier or insightful conversations). Once a search/hybrid/chatGPT (how I've used it for almost yearS now) requires a log-in, it will immediately not be able to compete well with open-facing search engines like Google.
I have this same hesitation about using a pay search engine like Kagi, but am definitely intrigued by some of the other commenters' descriptions of the AI Assistant part of their service offering.
