Windows 10 is probably your issue there to be honest. I have issues with HipChat at work on Windows 10 on a Mac. But at home on Linux with worse hardware? No issues. It's literally Windows 10 & drivers.

I wonder what exactly would be an issue? Windows tends to have the best drivers for... pretty much everything.

But that's just the thing -- Slack is the only laggy program on my machine and trust me, as a dev with 15 years of professional (and total of 25 with hobby) experience and an aspiring sysadmin, I have a lot.

Can't blame the entire OS for a single program being badly written.

I'm also windows 10, and find it impossible to blame. I've run discord on the same machine on a much more active group, and it's far more performant.
