@Vishnu2jd @thomasfuchs I literally have to wait minutes for an Electron-based text editor to launch. It's a huge waste of resources.

@foolishowl Then that would be a system on which it takes minutes to open a web page, right?

@nitind No. In fact I have a Web-browser based markdown editor running on an SBC that opens slower than a native app, but much faster than an Electron-based app running locally.

@foolishowl it's so hilarious how you fully missed the point of the OP and don't even realize it. this post is 10x funnier for that @Vishnu2jd @thomasfuchs

@walruslifestyle @Vishnu2jd @thomasfuchs I'm not sure how pointing out that Electron apps are like older apps, but slower and worse, is missing his point.

If Electron apps ever made it to the size of hype that blockchain, VR, NFT and AI (or rather LLM's) grew to, I'm sorry, I missed it.

Have been diligently watching the internet news since 1995, though.
