> Tiny. A single ~17 MB app

Oh goodness what have we come to? I know we're comparing to electron monstrosities, but still

complaining about 17mb in 2026 has to be virtue signaling of some sort...

yes I know we went to the moon with a few kb but are we going to hang on to that for ever?

How would this be virtue signaling?

Anyway, I think we should want to build efficient things. Dismissing this doesn’t seem terribly productive.

I am not complaining about it being 17MB. I am complaining about someone considering it tiny.
Sigh. Found the Electron developer.

Yes, yes we fucking are.
