Interesting take on comparability vs performance. I gotta imaging capturing user data and sending to a cloud collector is also a big culprit.

This is why I hate electron apps on Linux and Windows alike. Sadly, most apps are going electron, especially popular commercial apps. ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

Isn't flutter running mostly native? Afaik most newly created apps are using flutter which does not use electron in it's native versions, right?

This is my understanding as well. Always thought that if I were to develop an app that I wanted to release far and wide, I'd choose Flutter.

The new installer of Ubuntu is being made with Flutter. I am not sure why since it doesn't need to be cross platform, but they are working together with the Flutter team at Google.
