Electron is not really fast, nor does it generate great GUIs. It's much younger than Qt, only four years old. It's not frequently updated, it uses an insecure version of the Chromium browser. So... not all positives can be applied.

In fact none can be applied except ease of use and it's about the same, until the app grows and one realizes that the typical JS architecture is as easy to structure as a pile of mush.

Electron supporters are really taking the piss in this thread. Slapping together a bunch of statements which can be easily disproved doesn't qualify as an argument.

I absolutely disagree with all of your statements and think they are equally unjustified.

You have your unshakable opinions and I’ll leave you alone with them.
