I agree too, and your average user is not going to care about the fact you've used Electron, or even know. It's a big win for development.


I disagree. I mean they may literally not know that your app uses Electron, but they'll certainly have the feeling of, "Oh, that janky app that doesn't quite work correctly and makes my system slow."


I think that might be true on Windows or Linux, but not on the Mac. It seems like Mac developers care more about making their application feel good to use.


Your average user has just come expect technology to suck nowadays. Go look around and many people are jaded by how poor things actually function.
