Yea they are so weird and annoying
Yea they are so weird and annoying
So, why is electron a bad idea?
People don’t become like this,
micropenis!
I hope I will duck off before we go full dystopian
-something… uh…. A big number
What were we talking about again?
“P-please be gentle, Xbox-kun”
“Don’t worry, PS-chan” he caressed her cheek “it will be fine. I love you.”
“I love you too…” she softly whispered, letting a loud squeak go a moment later — her cheekbones blushing of a gentle, celestial blue
— Fuck you for making me think about this cursed crap
that would change nothing to you. Unless they are seriously consuming a lot of memory and filling up processes while not needed, then it’s fine. Otherwise it means the app was developed by a bunch of monkey, but that could happen - maybe even more likely - with native software as well.
Tldr: to the end user it changes literally nothing nowadays, to the companies and the devs it changes quite a lot. And to some degree, end-users won’t have to deal with shitty ugly apps (unless the designers are jerks, in which case you are probably working in the same company as me)
Your kernel allocates all the ram anyway lol, it literally changes nothing to you
I use both daily, never noticed a problem. MacBook Pro M1 with 8GB ram. Eight!
Making a normal app costs much more than making an electron app, so I press X
Have you ever had, in good conscience, a problem caused by an electron app using too much resources?
Because we are, again, in 2023: the standard is 16GB of RAM, with CPUs much more powerful and with a lot of more cores and thread per cores than the past. Complaining about a PC resources being used when these doesn’t actually create a problem is like complaining about GUI being bloat; or JS/CSS being bloat.
This of course doesn’t mean electron is perfect, cause it clearly isn’t, but it’s a good enough solution that can be iterated upon (see Tauri) and improved (the DX on electron is shit). Nor that every app should be in electron.
How will you know you are deficient in B6?
lmao, yea. Besides, it’s not like electron is that bad either. We aren’t in 1990, why would you care if electron uses a gb of ram or ten processes or this or that… they think that native means good, but more often than not native means a shitty ugly unusable application that will work (not really) just on windows
It’s technically still an exclusive if you consider windows IS Microsoft. That is, it will run on Linux obviously
I got cursed with big, thick, hands so I can use my iPhone 13 Pro Max with one hand…
Imagine being a woman with very being hands, not funny at all
I don’t think I ever heard of a case where somebody has been condemned for piracy in Italy; I also know plenty of people who torrents/stream, yet none who uses a VPN to do so.
In Germany though, afaik, they are quite insane with their anti-piracy laws.
Sorry, please don’t take this as an attack. It’s just that I’m so tired of that lame joke.
I tried to present this as an observation. When filing a bug report (which I tried to emulate here), you have to take into account the distro, as it may influence the behavior of the software in question. Namely here Firefox.
Now, does that make you laugh? Good, laugh about it. But please think about it in this context. You are laughing about a personal choice. Prejudice is taking hold of your mind. You’re turning someone’s choice into a strawman, easy to be laughed at just because.
It’s a bit like attacking vegans. Now it’s not about this or that person and their choice. They’re evened out, ridiculed, just because it’s memetic to do so. The same with Arch users, so it seems.
I don’t use Arch btw. There’s no btw because I don’t care about that. This just reminds me of how certain groups always have to hear the same old tired jokes about them, just because, individually, everyone telling those jokes feels it’s so clever to do so.
Sorry. I think we can do better than this here at Lemmy. Again, this is not an attack. Perhaps just a reminder.
It’s a VM software
DuckDuckGo has been giving me poor results lately - especially when I look for news, everything is a redirect to Bing now - so I instead use Brave Search. It’s kind of disappointing since DDG had always worked great for me
