Yup. Fortunately this is not 2010 where that would more than 0.1% of the storage space on your typical machine.

- sz4kerto 9y agoStill dog slow on my 20C/64G box. :/
- Jaepa 9y agoI can imagine. Then this is probably not the best option for that box. The WebApp, or Emacs-Slack(https://github.com/yuya373/emacs-slack https://github.com/yuya373/emacs-slack), or Slackadaisical(https://github.com/bkanber/Slackadaisical https://github.com/bkanber/Slackadaisical) would probably be a better option. But either way its an option that probably wouldn't exist otherwise.
- danieldk 9y agoBut you know as well as anyone else that the problem with browser-based apps is that they take hundreds of megabytes of memory. And unfortunately, memory is still scarce (no thanks to Intel for not supporting LP-DDR4 in mobile SKUs).
- toyg 9y agoMeh, LP is nice to have but you can live fairly happily without. My real beef with electron apps is that they invariably lack support for all sorts of goodies (accented-character menus, OS-specific shortcuts, text auto-expansion, etc etc...) that regular desktop apps just get as standard.
