— Also imo his article would be more impactful (impactful enough) if he had provided that sort of substance
But anyone can write what he wrote about anything. "my cpu/ram usage is too high on X app" is not enough substance to any argument calling for abandonment of a technology
— So while I agree on several points of his and others, and agree electron should not be the go-to platform for embedding web tech as native, I still call into question the author's true motives and find the lack of substance to be confusing for someone claiming to want change
— He literally claims he does not understand. Right in the article
— It's an opinion piece/blog post, not a new york times article
— He's just complaining about something that affects him, in his free time
— And I find he makes good points
— Because those things affect me too
— Then the only real argument I have left is to say it is not a perfect electron argument. I have seen many which make much more technical sense. If anything, his article is good reading for the layman.
— That does make sense considering his call to users
— His blog is developer focussed, if you look at the other articles
— I really am interested in what the profiler says about it too
