I've slowly started to remove Electron apps from my workflow. I used to use Atom, but I've switched to an paid for Sublime. The last two apps I have which use electron are Hyper and Slack. Hyper could go, but I really like the interface and Slack probably isn't going anywhere.
Real-time update:
I just checked Activity Monitor and Hyper is leading average energy impact followed by Xcode. Looks like I might be switching back to iTerm this weekend.
- wishinghand 10y agoWhat is the draw of Hyper over iTerm2?
- hoschicz 10y agoIt runs Javascript! You can tune and theme it with CSS and JS! That's actually the biggest selling point. I couldn't imagine using Hyper: I open terminals very often and waiting for Chrome to load when I need to just run a command would be very exhausting.
- joeblau 10y agoHonestly, and I know this is stupid, it just looks better and can be customized a bit more. Since I really should be more focused on performance, I'm going to switch to either iTerm or Terminal.
- joeblau 10y agoI switched back to iTerm2 last night. Deleted Hyper and Atom. I found a patch with dark mode in iTerm which I'm using now: https://github.com/gnachman/iTerm2/pull/318 https://github.com/gnachman/iTerm2/pull/318
