I wonder where the 10GB come from. Quick check on Flatpak shows 240 MB download and 568 MB installed size for the Linux install.

In a perfect world it would be reduced to 0 MB.

Misinformation. Discord isn’t 10GB and nobody outside Discord has actually used the Rust port.

What the fuck. That's amazing. 10GB->10MB can't simply be moving from Electron right?

I really hope with hardware prices going back to the last century, we finally get some best practices back.
