      Can we ban Electron yet? Everything about it is awful.

          The general principle here is, like, don't ship an emulator/vm/whatever with your product that wants to run in it. Work with the properly maintained & secured distribution model for it unless you can do better yourself (you can't or you wouldn't be shipping js apps).

          People just want portable software with cute UI that doesn't require a large team to maintain across platforms (sometimes they also want it to work offline). Electron is an unsafe but understandable attempt at filling that niche.

          The exact same problem is solved by just shipping a tiny webserver to run on localhost & a shortcut to open it with the user's existing preferred browser.

          But people won't do even that, also "looks" are more important than function for most startups. An installation "looks" legit.

          Clearly the "look" of consuming 20GB of ram and your users getting pwned by vulns is better than the look of a browser window...

          Users seem to associate these practices with what the "big guys" do. Or at least, start-ups decided as much, which in practical terms it's the same.

          Microsoft buying GitHub means Microsoft will finally be able to kill an open source project worth killing!

          As long as we're keeping the particle. I can't cook without electrons, it ruins the flavors.
