Someone woke up and chose violence against Electron apps, and honestly? They're spitting facts. The rant reads like a manifesto written by someone who just watched Slack consume 4GB of RAM to display text messages.
The whole "webapps were not supposed to have life-altering effects" bit hits different when you realize we're literally running entire operating systems inside Chrome just to display a to-do list. We went from "write once, run anywhere" to "download 300MB just to check your email."
