I agree, but that's where we are and I've never been hampered. Electron is not going away.
I run Slack, Discord, Signal, Bitwarden, Asana, VS Code, GitHub - all idling quietly on a 16GB MPB M2. Was the same on my M2.
It's overblown, I don't care about Electron, how it's made (I understand how), who makes it, no dog in the hunt, but there is too much FUD about it, IMO.
