You could've said that clearly instead of making people guess what you're talking about. No idea why VSCode is being sparing for you, but i've seen plenty of electron-based online messengers use that much just by running.

Man, i can't tell if you're trolling me, or really can't see it. I'm actually kinda pissed because if you're serious you're being really dense, and if you're trolling you're being really good. The art

Each of those apps does a lot more than the most common use for electron: "online messengers" Also, you're arguing in typical FYGM fashion. Not a good look.

Even if the app is smaller on drive, it still takes ~200mb in ram for even the smallest apps.

> Avoiding trolls isn't nearly as hard as people here are making it seem If you truly believe this then you're amazingly ignorant. I'd rather believe you're trolling on this matter than imagine someone this ignorant.

There's no forum where the people running it don't have trivially easy access to do what he did. The point is that he has clearly shown what kind of thing it takes to push him that far, and it's clearly not done trivially. E:

As long as he follows up in the same mature manner, it'll be unfortunate, but forgivable. :) Also, calling someone a dumbfuck and pretending you didn't just do that because it's "just a quote" is not the greatest a

You're thinking too shallow. :) It took people harrassing him personally, and at scale, for him to snap. And even then he did not ban anyone, but did what amounts to a prank. And even then he did not hide it, but owned it and apologize

It runs afoul of brigading due to the sheer scale. If it managed to stay entirely within the subreddit then the admins would never need to be concerned with it and none of this would've happened.

It's not about opinions. That particular sub-reddit is a mixture of real people, and trolls who pose as trump supporters to egg the supporters on, as well as scaring and pissing off people against trump. The result being that with litt

That you think they're actually expressing their political views instead of shitposting to rile up actual trump voters while pissing off the rest of the internet is fairly naive.
