I dont mind running 1 electron app on my desktop, where battery isnt an issue, but imagine if every app you run all day was electron. How long would a battery last? How much more energy is being consumed across the world because of it? If your making a get-in-get-out type of app, its a no-brainer, but if your making a live communications app, a text editor for professional text enterers, an image editor for artist, that's supposed to run all day, I think its worth considering something more efficient. It'd be a hard comparison to make right, but I'd like to see if electron apps don't undo all the energy saving changes done by chip manufactures.
