you know that Electron uses Blink which is LGPL right ? It also ships by default with ffmpeg which is used by chromium for video rendering, which is also LGPL (https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/master:t...).

See https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/directory-discuss/2017-12... - and some LGPL-prefixed files from Blink's source code if you don't believe :-)

I'll let you note the large irony of WebKit & thus Blink & Electron originally coming from KHTML, that is, a KDE project originally built with Qt - Lars Knoll at the top of that copyright header is currently CTO of The Qt Company.
