Ask HN: Why desktop apps are moving to browser but mobile apps to native?

This is something I have been wondering fir a while. It looks like on the desktop there is a clear trend of more and more stuff being done in browser instead of native apps . But in the mobile ecosystem everyone are pushing their native apps. Why is this difference? Is it UX differences? Economical incentive differences? Someone with wested interested pushing things in one or both? Just a fashion thing? And is this trend sustainable? Or is that going to reverse or are thing going to migrate into either native or browser apps in both ecosystems? I just do not get my head around why this is happening.
