all i am saying is fact, it is a waste don't ship what's not needed, it's a waste and it tells a lot about the mentality of the developers/company 60mb, now CDN server need at least 60mb of storage to cache your file compare this to a developer that care and will produce the same with a native language for 6mb, that's 10x less the space needed it'll cost CDN 10x less money to store and serve since they'll need 10x less storage and will require less bandwidth too for you single dev, you apparently don't care, but it then hurts everyone, including global warming issue and at the end, it'll hurt me, now my 128gb SSD isn't enough to store all the electron shit, i need upgrade to install new update cpu and memory also has to take longer to load and cache all your program it is the reason why software sucks despite hardware becoming better, nobody care anymore and it all start at the developper computer, if you don't care, nothing will improve, and every bits matter, either you like it or not, that's how computers work

If you are talking about end user software, you can just depend on platform dotnet and just ship your library/executables. For server software 60mb is not much when you see most people ship gigabytes of docker containers for os runtime.

and idk why there is this culture in "IT" of not wanting to acknoledge how computers work, and how bloat affects performance, efficiency, cost and global warming i came to the conclusion that clueless people managed to get into high positions, and wanted to secure their position by hiring the same kind of people, the people who don't give a damn about performance problems they'll just waste (again the word waste) more funds from the company after all, if nobody know how computer works, they'll just agree and sign the big invoice without asking themselves, wait, don't we pay too much to deliver this web page, do we really it to be 260mb?
