Native developers just can't win anymore. Here someone wrote a native application for macOS using native widgets and getting native performance, and all Hacker News can do is complain that it's Electron-based when it's not.
Seriously, if we're at the point where you just can't tell if it's native or Electron, I think it's time for the anti-Electron brigade to come to an end.

I don't know where the parent here got this daft idea, but you can be sure it wasn't from actually trying Quiver. It's gobsmackingly obvious that it's a true Cocoa app.
