> When pressed for reasons what exactly is so bad about Electron, they can rarely offer anything than vaguely mumbled "memory usage" or "b-but it's an entire browser" (both of which have not been true for years, for example Electron's memory usage has improved dramatically, but the meme stuck)

I downloaded Nuclear (the AppImage, if that matters) and booted it up. Instant 300MB RAM usage.

I think I'll pass.
