Electron is fine if it's optimised which generally doesn't happen.
@JackBruhhh @rei
#electron does consume quite a bit more ram than it should.
Either way, I don't really have much of a problem with it.
It does but in exchange devs can make cross-platform applications. I don't mind using Electron apps unless they're horribly optimized like Teams used to be some years ago.
Teams is still horribly optimized and barely works though. I love having to restart my computer in order to be able to sign in.
Protip: It's much faster and more stable when just opened as a webpage in Firefox
I wish. Teams literally says Firefox is not supported and doesn't allow me to make calls, even though I'm able to join meetings. Teams is a joke.
I also used to have that message but it seems like they've got that back in order.
I remember that back then you could download an extension to pretend your user agent was Chrome and Teams would work flawlessly.
