    lmao, yea. Besides, it’s not like electron is that bad either. We aren’t in 1990, why would you care if electron uses a gb of ram or ten processes or this or that… they think that native means good, but more often than not native means a shitty ugly unusable application that will work (not really) just on windows

      If a fancy text editor starts eating hundreds of megabytes RAM without having loaded a file, i think we did something wrong.

      Though Visual Studio can do that too without Electron.

        VS Code is low than a text editor these days. It’s frequently used as a full fledged IDE now.
