60 FPS for some steam games, very nice. Now lets see how fast an x86 electron app runs.

I used Discord in Rosetta 2 for a while before there was a proper aarch64 build, it was fine.
Isn't the point of electron to be cross platform? (I get a company may have not released an ARM build or wherever, but seems an odd choice for emulated performance comparison)
Yes, the idea is that it runs equally slow with massive RAM useage independent of platform.
It works surprisingly well for x86 electron apps. It's kind of amazing how fast and bug free it is, in general.
