I'm very happy it's not written in {insert technology unpopular among hackers to gather points}.

Nowhere is Electron mentioned and still comes the hate. A close friend of mine (not a web-developer, unlike me) has a very popular app (>10K users) which uses Electron and he got only around 30 performance complaints last year and all of them could be solved without rewriting the damn thing. The app has a giant "Feedback" button in the main view and there are at least 10 bug reports / suggestions per day (I manage the support desk).

This is getting to the levels of this silly Java hate because everyone thought the performance of Eclipse from years ago still is the state-of-the-art for Java development. There are many bad electron-based apps, that is for sure and completely normal because the barrier to entry is so low. Yeah and there is Slack, but don't complain if you gave up IRC for that incompatible piece of... Whatever.

Sorry for the rant.

What's the app called? Is there a Linux version?
