Claiming that everyone is worse off because electron apps consume more resources then they would had they been written in a "native" language is only true if the only value you get from an app is low resource consumption.

(I use native in quotation marks because we can probably not even agree on what that is.)

This attitude seems to be common here but everyone hating on electron seems to ignore any positive aspects of it and only focuses on the fact that it is slower and/or more resource intensive then had it been written in <native-language-of-choice>.

You can dislike Electron on a technical or principal level, that's fair, but until there is an alternative that would be considered better by most things will simply not change.

Until then, repeating the negatives over and over again only serves to de-value the efforts of those actually producing and shipping code and the only possible outcome is another "tabs vs spaces" holy war.
