      Multiple Chromium browsers that probably send telemetry to Google, no less.

      I’d be slightly less hateful of Electron if it used a non-Google engine, but alas Chrome is the new 90’s Internet Explorer and everyone needs to bend over backwards to it.

          It does but in exchange devs can make cross-platform applications. I don’t mind using Electron apps unless they’re horribly optimized like Teams used to be some years ago.

            Teams is still horribly optimized and barely works though. I love having to restart my computer in order to be able to sign in.

            Protip: It’s much faster and more stable when just opened as a webpage in Firefox

              I wish. Teams literally says Firefox is not supported and doesn’t allow me to make calls, even though I’m able to join meetings. Teams is a joke.

                I also used to have that message but it seems like they’ve got that back in order.

                I remember that back then you could download an extension to pretend your user agent was Chrome and Teams would work flawlessly.
