My list:

  • A privacy respecting Dating platform.
  • A good 2D CAD program capable of dealing with DWG files.

Please don’t post a huge list of games. That would belong in another post. since there are many good ones already.

    Seriously, fk Electron apps. They look out of place in every system because it’s basically impossible for it to look native, which is a small complaint compared to the sheer amount of resource usage. I don’t need Chromium running just to edit some text.

    Also, pretty sure Chromium still phones home to Google. The de-googled Chromium browser project works hard AF to remove all the spyware and still are never completely sure they’ve removed everything.

    It’s not even that easy to code in (I know because I do single page web app development) compared to a mid-level compiled language like Java/Kotlin while having the final app be more resource intensive. Node.js is one of my least favorite frameworks.

      I remind myself about this every single time I consider using an electron-based app, whether because the offer is actually attractive, or just because there’s nothing else out there.
