But outside of the small percentage of technical people who know how inefficient e.g. Discord and Slack are, and how you could replace these applications that take 800MB of RAM each with something that took less than 50MB if they weren't using Electron... nobody cares. If people did care, you'd have someone writing a highly optimized chat/voip app from the ground up in Rust and native code for the mobile versions and people switching en masse. But it just hasn't happened, because for 99.999% of the world, they're good enough.
