Have you tried uninstalling Chrome? I hear it can make your WindowServer go wild :P
More seriously, though, this is why I hate people who use software like Electron and claim their users can't notice: of course they can, they just complain that their computer is slow because they can't pinpoint it on your app. As a developer who knows better, your entire charade depends on ignorant users being unable to point the blame at you for what you have done to them. Combine this with the lock-in typical of today where users are resigned to use your software even if they don't particularly want to and now the people who do know what you're doing can't do anything about it either.
