Honestly, the end of everything being a chrome-based app and people making actual native desktop apps that run at 10x the speed with 1/10th the energy usage would be excellent. I really hope that does happen.
- inglor_cz 1y ago"that run at 10x the speed with 1/10th the energy usage" How many current developers optimize their products for speed and energy usage? I can see the very opposite happening: half-baked apps, whose massive portions were written using free-tier AI output, hogging gigabytes of RAM and four processor cores while the cursor is idly spinning and the laptop is becoming hot. Compared to the past (and my memory goes back to Netscape Navigator 3, old person that I am), modern browsers seem to be technologically fine.
- watermelon0 1y agoI'd say it's really hard to write a native app, however unoptimized, to be a bigger memory hog than Electron apps.
