I can't help but feel as if the author can't make the distinction between a platform and the software written for it. People have been misusing platforms ever since they existed. Its not because someone used Electron to build a console that Electron is bad in and of itself, it just means someone used the wrong tool for that specific job - or maybe that fitted all their requirements in which cause the author is just dismissing the work with no clue about its context.
I also can't help but feel as if the author is a beginner developer lacking a huge amount of context and experience. Saying "Electron enables lazy developers to write garbage" displays a huge misconception about software development in the very first place - garbage will be written no matter the language or platform.
Alls the article did was remind me that those who can, do, and those who can't, blog.
