  • The reason people use Electron in the first place is that they wanna share a codebase between web, desktop and possibly mobile.

    While Flutter can technically do that, the web apps it outputs are atrocious with poor usability and accessibility. It’s drawing the whole UI on a canvas element which causes all kinds of issues.

    For anyone considering Electron: take a look at Tauri. It’s another way to build cross-platform apps with web tech. It will use the OS‘s web rendering engine instead of shipping Chromium which results in much smaller binaries and faster startup times and less RAM usage. You can also write native code in Rust. It’s like Electron but good.

    So it ranks higher on social networks that are ad financed. These networks will usually „shadow ban“ content which references illegal things or contains swear words and rank it much lower since advertisers will not wanna put their ads next to it. It’s pathetic.

    Also kinda dumb since this post is still about cocaine and whichever ad is next to will still be next to „bad cocaine content“ or whatever.
