Because the compute power for consumer CPU nowadays is good enough, the effort has been in reducing energy consumption. But if you look at the server / workstation side, you can get 20+ cores in a single dice.

Good enough relative to the competition perhaps.

Nowadays the CPU is the bottle-neck even when surfing the web and using simple (electron) text editors.

But that's not really a CPU problem but a software problem. And faster CPUs won't fix it, due to Wirth's Law.

Anything built with Electron is the anathema of simple.
