'People complain about Electron a lot, but the primary complaint just seems to be that its bloated – carrying an entire browser engine along with something small. But like, all of our computers are already bloated, and there’s at least a 40% chance that right now I am bloated, and it doesn’t mean you should love me any less, and I think the above points I’ve raised override the lack of svelt-ness of the program. People don’t care that an application is a streamlined 3MB or a big round 200MB boy – they care that it works for them and it makes them feel good about using it.'
I think this is true in some cases, but the sorts of folk who run rsync may be more interested in performant hardware that can run on older machines than average. Then again, they'd probably opt for sticking to the command-line tool. Still a very cool project!
