I honestly don't think this is a JS problem. I don't use many js apps, but I use emacs, and it's also very slow. Most of the android apps are slow. When I'm streaming something, especially on twitch, sometimes my computer can't do anything else. And I'm on a pretty good hardware (ThinkPad X1 Carbon 7th Gen). Modern software is just slow, buggy and trash. Sure maybe gtk and qt are better, but they're pretty bad too. Software is just fundamentally bad because no one, even people who're paid to make software, cares about their quality. If global warming doesn't end up killing us all, I hope we fundamentally change the way we approach to software in the next decades.

Too much software engineering is learned on the job, and your job is usually dictated by laymen you have no control over and who may or may not give a damn about your career. You might work at a hygenic, technical garden, you might work at an Agile SCRUM feature factory that de facto prohibits re-factoring. But University CS programs aren't the proper place for this pedagogy either, and I don't see SWE guilds popping up for a few reasons.
