What does any of this have to do with choosing an electron app over a native app?
What does any of the malaise about discord have to do with their choice of runtime?
It is an untested hypothesis that if discord had a native app, all the problems that people complain about would disappear. I think people in hacker news like to just assert the hypothesis because sounds better than cross platform. But in this particular case, it is fundamentally untested. We simply don’t know that the app would be better if it were native.
That was only 1/3 of the electron applications which you hyper fixated on. If I use 10 applications a day and the 3 of them I (and countless other people) consistently have a problem with share something in common. Well, I'll let you figured that one out on your own.
I just saw your other posts in this thread though.
