I'm honest with myself. I'm not disputing that Electron is not the most optimal way to create a desktop app, I'm saying that it makes desktop development (particularly cross-platform development) faster and easier. I know I could make a more efficient app by going native. And hopefully in time, I will. But for the sake of getting it out the door I'll most likely go the Electron route.



I meant that as a general statement, not a challenge to you specifically. I wish I'd phrased it more kindly, because dismissing criticisms as "hatred" and implying that non-technical users don't care about battery life are the sort of thing I'm advocating against.
