It's ridiculous. I can launch a VM running Linux + X11 desktop environment from scratch faster than one of the most popular Electron apps launches & connects. Probably would run few apps in the VM well too with the same amount of memory.

Anything that could fix the current situation even a little bit like this project is much appreciated imho.

It starts by avoiding touching anything Electron related.

This craziness just made me buy Sublime Text.
