The difference between using VSCode and sublime/vim is several hours of battery life, and the difference between a comfortable lap and a warm lap. That I have beefy workstation machines doesn't really matter when I'm usually mobile on a low-power laptop. > The memory consumption doesn't bother me either or come anywhere close to bottlenecking me, because I'm a professional using professional hardware.

(You can get around some of these costs by using WebGL of course, but if you're doing manual rendering you have already thrown most of the reason for Electron out of the window, so why not do it natively where it will be even faster?) The end result is that, for something like an editor, Gtk and Qt will beat Chromium for responsiveness by a large margin, despite having much less performant renderers for the time being. However, it's expensive to build scenegraphs for it (needed on every change), and partial updates are far more expensive than they need to be. Not as fast as direct rendering like Sublime Text does, but for very complex scenes, it will beat Gtk and Qt. Which toolkits are you referring to, and do you truly just mean the renderer, or the entire engine?Ĭhromiums renderer is pretty fast. > Chromium's rendering engine is faster than most native cross platform toolkits. I think the one web app I legitimately enjoy using is trello. Not to forget the venerable command line.

I can get things done just fine in a github repo full of markdown, or apple notes, or email, or Xcode, or textedit or sublime text, and on and on. Of course there are some things I do like about each app, but for me they aren’t worth the tradeoff for the ramp up time on a new product coupled with the annoyances I encounter when using these new apps. Links take you to the browser based version instead of deep linking to the app. Notion has completely upended many tried and true patterns from word processing. Layout is awful in them, like slack threads being a sliver of the right side of the window, or notion’s usable area maxing out at 800 pixels, or height’s window being fixed to a minimum of 800. The glut of new ones I use for work on macOS: VSCode, Slack, Notion and Height all have different keybindings than any other apps, some completely disable command+? which I use to find/learn commands for operations I don’t already know. Other commenters are rightfully pointing out the continued performance issues, but just as important for me is the platform citizenship of electron apps.

It's telling that none of the widely used IDEs-Even Android Studio or XCode-don't adhere to these bullshit 'interface guidelines'. Macs seem to not have gone to that direction yet, but slowly 'advancing'. Desktop is where people get work done and the bastardized mobile interfaces Win8, Gnome 3, and Electron brought there are nothing but an obstacle. usability both in design and in performance is sad. The sheer ignorance of dev community wrt. Those icons from the '90s' make sense and communicate their functionality well, because they adhere to some convention and are not pure fluff like FontAwesome et al. Most machines don't run on high-quality fast SSDs.Īlso, the app is perfectly following the user guidelines of usable OSes: pre Win8 Windows and pre Gnome3 Linux. But the majority of people use average computers with 4-8GB RAM and some random CPU.

This is the most annoying thing with developers: many of them believe that a normal laptop from around 2010 is 'underpowered' and everybody's using the latest macbook pro or some high-end device.

Are they using machines from before 2010 and some system resources is a limiting factor?
