Correct, but I'm also not saying that isn't true? They aren't mutually exclusive. Electron can still be good/useful for many people, and companies like Spotify/Discord/Slack can still get criticized for not hiring devs to make dedicated teams to build native apps. Just because some companies are choosing the technology in ways people don't like, doesn't make the technology itself bad. I hardly ever see anyone phrase it that way, though. It's only "ELECTRON BAD", not "SLACK IS BAD FOR USING ELECTRON."
- smachiz 5y agoIt's a crutch so big companies can cheap out and ship subpar, lowest common denominator software that is bloated and slow. It is good for small teams to be able to rapidly build cross platform apps that are good for MVP. Slack is bad for using electron.
