MODERATORS
mobile is not the problem for many reasons. one being that apps offload so there is no system wide slowdown like you experience on a modern high end computer, caused by electron.
all those protocols only offer shitty electron apps on desktop.
i have a top end m1 mbp and it can handle 2 electron apps running concurrently at best. i won't even install electron apps anymore because i need to be able to actually use my computer for work. which is a bit ironic as most modern utility applications which would be useful for work can't even be used on most computers unless run as the single active app (great workflow, lol!).
There are many Matrix Clients that don't run on Electron on Desktop.
Afaik Telegram desktop does use Electron so I assumed we were talking about mobile.
EDIT: Telegram desktop does in fact not use Electron.
there is only really nheko in development among the non-electron alternatives and it's unstable. can't convince people to use software that only works half the time.
Why not? M$OFT managed to do so for years ...
