I don't ship any Electron app at $dayjob so while I could afford to sit on a high horse I don't think it's warranted. Electron really isn't an issue, it doesn't really help Chrome's position as a browser in any meaningful way. It doesn't drive people to use the Chrome "chrome" which is where the money is.

It's why despite Edge being built on Chrome they're pushing it hard because owning the space around the browser window is the goal.

Anything that pushes chrome helps Chrome gain market share.
