You seem to be chatting down some perceived tangental competition in order to chat yourself up. That kind of self-promotion's no good. Especially when picking ethereal "your writing sounds weird" ad homineming a decently detailed, reasonably hard-hitting, article.

Perhaps you don't like the conclusions it draws?

You then put words in others mouths. Then cannot leave the thread alone. You've already been called out by failing to pander some cheap anti-Electron sloganeering to the HN crowd, too.

I suggest, if you're going to talk-up your APP, to do so by focusing on positives. Perhaps read some posts by people that promote successfully, such as patio11.

Forward Email is not a competitor of ours, they offer a completely different kind of product.

I am not putting words in anyone's mouth. Direct quotes from the article:

> The companies that actually succeed in email don't try to reinvent the wheel

> Adding "AI" doesn't solve email's fundamental non-problems

Also, the article itself details the "Electron Performance Crisis".

Draw your own conclusions – this is a discussion. We're discussing.
