NotePad runs on Windows. You need to include Windows.
The argument doesn't really pass the sniff test frankly. Windows is a general purpose operating system much like Chrome is a general purpose web browser.
Infact nowadays to get this sort of NotePad you'll always have Edge installed in your computer, so you don't even have to download Chrome!
- nottorp 2y agoSure, how about the copy of the npm "ecosystem"? And you conveniently forget that you can choose not to start a browser while running the native notepad.
- bangaladore 2y ago> Sure, how about the copy of the npm "ecosystem"? I mentioned how many resources are downloaded. NPM is not required. "Modern" webapps get bundled, NPM is not distributed. > And you conveniently forget that you can choose not to start a browser while running the native notepad. When running a PWA, you don't have to start a browser. Does Chromium run in the background, sure, but you just click a icon or search like you always do. And honestly it opens and is ready to use possibly quicker than Notepad itself.
- nottorp 2y agoYeah it only uses 1 G ram more than notepad. Who cares about that indeed.
- bangaladore 2y agoAbout 500 MB in my testing. No need to hate on a submission. Some things aren't for everyone, but that doesn't mean its fundamentally flawed. You are arguing by chucking out claims and seeing what lands. That's not a good faith argument.
