[–] disconnectikacio@lemmy.world 1 point 6 months ago (1 child) It was an embedded browser embedded website crap since i know it (since 6 years), like m$ crap permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] 87Six@lemmy.zip 3 points 6 months ago Well yes, it was, but it worked, and it was still better than everything else. I've been on discord for 9 years. Embedded browsers aren't necessarily bad design. They're super fast to develop, and if done well, can work super efficiently. A browser can have a billion tabs open and work just fine. The same can go with an electron app given that the devs give 2 shits about optimization. Though if the Discord team doesn't care about optimizing the electron app, they wouldn't give a shit about optimizing a desktop app either. permalink fedilink source parent
