I'm saying that the capabilities of the game in question and the original Tetris are also orders of magnitude larger, you just don't see them directly because you're biased to comparing this game to the original due to its visual and gameplay style, and that comparing the two to measure the value of "bloat" is an absurd thing to do.
- throwme_123 3y agoSorry but sand physics is probably doable in a few kb (yes, that's kilobytes) of JS. This is different and simpler but just 140 bytes (not k): https://codepen.io/KilledByAPixel/pen/WNGQWZG https://codepen.io/KilledByAPixel/pen/WNGQWZG Nothing in that game justifies being more than 1mb (being very generous...) minified as a browser app.
- junon 3y agoOf javascript. Which has a stupidly large runtime that is certainly not just a few kilobytes.
- throwme_123 3y agoOk, was mentioning without the browser runtime obviously. Opionated take, but I believe that the web common runtime should be part of the OS nowadays. Even without this, Tauri is 8Mb.
- shultays 3y agoSorry, I have to make one last snarky comment. You can probably include entire firefox along with that a few kb of js and still make it under whatever that 60mb expands to :)
- krzyk 3y agoSure, let's maybe make an electron app.
