Yes, yes, and a thousand times yes. People usually says "so what, RAM is there to be used" (I even think I saw it in this thread). But when 3 of these bulky apps are eating the whole RAM and no more software can run because of them, it's the user, especially the not very savvy user, the one who usually assumes their computer doesn't work any more for modern software and they need to incur in the effort and cost of acquiring a new one. Electron is a fine way to test a market, but it is only financially viable to use long term (such as done by Slack, Discord or Spotify) because it externalizes the actual cost to its users. For an app that is open-use-close, it's ok and I see no issue. But for apps meant to be constantly running in the background (like a music player or a chat app) I think Electron is almost a sin against its users.
