Hi, Felix from Slack's Electron team here.

Slack co-maintains Electron together with GitHub, employing multiple core maintainers full-time, contracting those who can't join us full-time. We've also just hosted (and paid for) the first Electron conference. We're also maintaining a fairly large number of electron-userland modules.

tl;dr: That page might be misleading, we're investing heavily in Electron.

Any plans on dealing with Slack's/Electron's memory footprint?

Yes, we’re actively working on that.
