Electron is also problematic for memory usage.
My main laptop has 4GB ram. I cannot afford to use 500mb for a chat app. Beside, did you even go outside? A lot of people cant afford (or dont need) a computer with more than that. For example lets see in a community where having a lot of ram matters. In the Steam Community, around 12% of people have 4GB or less. https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey#cat0_stats_row
