I'm generally pretty pragmatic about using stuff that is convenient even if might not be too efficient, but I have to agree with most usage of Electron that I find. I'm using a MacBook that, while a few years old, still does almost everything well. It struggles when I have a few Electron-based apps open and that's just ridiculous. It also drastically impacts battery life.
It's reached a point where I use my iOS devices for Spotify and/or Slack just so my laptop can run whatever other crappy Electron app I need to use.
I find that VSCode is almost worth it, but that's perhaps one of the few exceptions (and I still go for Sublime Text most of the time).
Any app that needs to be persistent really has no business using Electron. It's a terrible waste.
