So, a majority of apps that set up a window then use their own internal renderer? Except Telegram and Lyx.
Fair enough, but this is hardly representative of the sort of things Electron does well. What's more, Lyx and Telegram aren't exactly famous for being accessible apps.
It's very difficult for me to envision why someone wants to work 4x harder on an app to cut the memory footprint from 2g-4g (much of which is actually shared with the browser you've probably got running anyways) to 1g.
People demand respect for less able hardware, but I use Electron on 8 year old computers without complaint. And all I can hear in this is the emacs vs vi stuff again.
