This is such a reddit take. Yeah electron takes a lot of resources, but there’s also a lot of software that never would’ve been made in the first place if we didn’t have it. It’s not as simple at pointing to (comparatively) inefficient software and saying that’s bad. Software is ubiquitous now and a big part of the reason for that is that frameworks and abstractions made software much easier to create.

I say this as someone who spent all of yesterday optimizing out a function call to save 36 nanoseconds: stop whining about electron.

You might consider that your comment would have been just as strong without the opening put-down.

I found it interesting commentary… must’ve been because I wasn’t its target!

Maybe “common myth I’ve noticed spread on reddit” would work.

I'm fine with Electron, not so fine with basic websites being so bloated now that even a modern computer lags on them. Those were achievable in the past.
