> the UI hasn't changed in years. It begs the question what those 100mb are and whether it's actually necessary. Signal desktop doesn't use incremental updates. Each "update" is just reinstalling the whole package. That's what those 100 MB are. It's possible to make incremental updates with binary patches, but it's more difficult. I guess Signal have other priorities.
