I personally hate rounded corners and shadows added everywhere. Makes most things look crappy and smudged.

Apps that aren't native

Goddamn Chromium

[–] LemonDrop 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Amen. Resource hogging shitty apps. I am a developer and I hate when people are proud that they can make cross-platform apps while making shitty resource wasting non native apps that are vulnerable or can not work properly but they burry issues with annoying animations to waste time that the end user thinks its cool. I am looking at you, Javascript frameworks in mobile. I hate you that does all that. And then also in windows; Imagine a calendar hogging 2.5 gigs of ram because it is chromium masquerading as a native app. Unoptimized steaming shite. Frameworks work best on the web and let them stick there. Personal devices that apply to daily use need native codebase for efficiency, security, etc. Rant over ffs

I'm of two minds about this. While I definitely get the disdain for resource-hogging electron apps, it has lead to a boom of popular programs coming over to Linux when most developers previously didn't bother to make or maintain a native app.
