kek

Why Discord uses so little RAM?

I thought every Electron program would be a memory hog like Whatsapp for desktop.

Fucking kill me now.

>it's another Electron hate thread

oh yeah we havent had 10 today yet

there's just no competition for Electron because it's the best, easiest to use platform for multiplatform programs with rich GUIs. there's nothing that even comes close. nothing that has such a large, active community, and such ready availability of tools and libraries. it's "slow" only on 15-years old PCs. it doesn't matter to anyone who's got a PC built in this decade.

>solidarity with our asian friends and colleagues

what the fuck is this dumb cunt talking about

asians are the best off race in the western world economically, they don't need help from triggered faggots

Why *wouldn't* they use Electron? It's GitHub's own technology.

no idea. that's from GIthub's mandatory diversity training.

Because sanity.

no thx, ill just use the cli

>github devs
>sanity

kek

Git CLI on Linux, the electron app is still in beta you can get the normal windows github app too. You can also switch to hit CLI on windows

or just throw the electron app in the fucking garbage

>defending shitty lazy coding
you're what's wrong with modern tech

>people actually use gui git clients
what the fuck?

The nu-male developers care more about the UI than learning real stuff.

I can't really imagine what kind of developers are going to use this anyway. It's for beginners at best and I can't see it providing any benefit to anyone else.

I actually liked the old desktop client

Does this new one still not have a linux release?

Now Pajeet can include he has a "GitHub MBA" on his resume

nope

enjoy the irony of a git tool not being able to be used on linux

>implying you would want to anyway

I'm in support of this, if you use a gui for git this is the fate you deserve
