Electron

roustem Thank you for the reply.

Oh the App itself feels faster than 1P7, I don't think many are disputing that, but it is a massive resource hog in comparison. Furthermore, the new Browser extensions are also heavier than the outgoing ones - what was once lightweight, and super fast is now not the case.

What about the issues with Electron's usability, having menus that won't display beyond the rendered window (as a post above provided screenshots for) I know these things seem little, but they are really jarring. I think we'd have all preferred less polish, but SwiftUI and taken the jankiness that might have meant. Alternatively, delaying shipping the Apps until next year would be much better, if it meant Electron was not used.

I appreciate this may not be a typical Electron App, as twitter suggests, but you know you have a large number of proud macOS users, did you really think this change would go over well? I'd happily take a regression back to 1P7's speed if it meant we could avoid Electron at all. Please don't take this the wrong way, but using Electron is lazy, other methods might take more time and money, but they would have worked much better for us, the end user.
