Isn't vscode written in electron?

Electron is fine if it's optimised which generally doesn't happen.

electron does consume quite a bit more ram than it should.
Either way, I don't really have much of a problem with it.

It is, which is why I avoid it. The amount of power VSCode consumes vs others is significant. Jetbrains products even have a low power mode which turns off indexing. Can run that thing all day long without plugging in.
I also use Ripcord for slack instead of that electron client.
I always avoid electron apps so I don't have to have a separate flow when I am on battery vs plugged in.

It's an easy way to make crossplatform apps with web technologies you already know. I wish there were more efficient alternatives that do it.
Tauri is an option, but it still depends on your OS' native browser.

Yes! Yes! Fricking yes!
