Electron anecdote : I joked with a coworker that they had left their "out of office" status icon on slack in order to work in peace.

Turns out that it was already removed but slack was still displaying it.

⌘ + R (refresh page shortcut) solved it.. Electron might help devs getting something out quickly but all these layers have a cost

Client and server side state sync is a hard problem regardless of whether your app is native. A native app wouldn't automatically handle this.
Some IRC clients would change the nick of the user if the user toggles that they are AFK.
for some reason pretty much every time I have such an issue, command + r solves it, must be my luck
