- duiker101 8y agoWhat do you even need the app for? You can just use the browser extensions. I also just tried the desktop app and it's not too bad for an electron app, not particularly good either tho.
- judge2020 8y agoIs using electron/chromium an actual problem? Assuming it works, would you say the same thing if it was made in winforms on .net framework 3.5, or something as old as Qt 3?
- jchw 8y agoThe app itself is not strictly needed except on mobile where it's not electron. The browser extensions are free-standing. I don't use the app.
- solarkraft 8y agoIt's one of the better electron apps I've used. I also like to avoid them (actually you can just run the website in a browser), but "open source" definitely is far in front of "doesn't use electron/any web tech" in my list of priorities.
