[–] xusontha@ls.buckodr.ink [S] 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) It's not terrible, electron is good for stuff like what you discuss I just like native apps better haha permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] el_abuelo@lemmy.ml 1 point 2 years ago Native apps have the potential to be better than electron apps for sure. I get that. This is a surface level thing though - the question is: would THIS app, written by THAT organisation be better if it was native? Unlikely because they don't have the skillset for it...otherwise it would have been a native app. Its also likely that less apps would even exist because the barrier to entry is higher without electron and similar. But this is just a meme and I'm taking this way too seriously! permalink fedilink source parent
