Discord isn't an Electron app, its React native. And as a frequent user on my Macbook and my Android, it isn't resource intensive at all.

Discord desktop is electron. Only our iOS app is react native. We spend quite a lot of time and effort optimizing performance however, something thats required given the number of large servers with many thousands of concurrent users.
