alt Hacker News> For now, Electron still makes sense
A few years ago maybe. Tauri makes better sense for this use case today - like Electron but with system webviews, so at least doesn't bloat your system with extra copies of Chrome. And strongly encourages Rust for the application core over JS/Node.
Electron has never made sense. It is only capable of making poorly performing software which eats the user's RAM for no good reason. Any developer who takes pride in his work would never use a tool as bad as Electron.
