That's what you get for making apps with fucking Electron, aka "a Chrome browser that only opens a single website"

[-] Merlin@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

What makes me confused is that the epic games website is a lot quicker than their app. I reckon they’re not using electron and maybe are using something much worse. Not sure if it was a joke but long ago I’ve heard someone suggesting it was actually unreal engine and not electron

[-] Lorium_O@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

It IS unreal engine

[-] MBM@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Huh, someone else here said it uses Unreal engine

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

Huh, I always thought it was Electron, because I've had an older version of EGS show some fonts in super low res, much like Discord did, which is a known bug with Electron and hardware acceleration

You know those ad banners you get on mobile? What do you think they run on

[-] Zoidsberg@lemmy.ca 19 points 1 year ago

Ad... banners? I haven't seen an ad on my phone in years.

[-] Krakatoa@lemmy.film 18 points 1 year ago

My phone, duh.

[-] limecool@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago

Ad banners? I haven't seen one since forever. I have no idea what you are even talking about.

That's probably mostly Flutter, which is slightly different scope, though still Google

[-] OsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Nah most ad networks run full browsers

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

No idea what you're talking about
