      Funny enough I work in the opposite end of the spectrum with embedded firmware. But even I can see the value of webdev.

        i want to see the value in webdev, but the more i interact with websites and shit based on platforms like electron, the more i just want it to be fucking dead. It’s such a useless shit hole.

        Fun fact, the linux discord binary seems to have a particular issue where you can bring up the “electron menu” but for some reason the base version of electron discord is using has disabled the ability to remove the menu, so if you hit alt + f, h, t, e or some shit like that, i’m pulling these out of my ass for demonstration here, it brings up a menu that you literally can’t remove.

        But don’t worry, because you actually can remove it you just have to bump it into fullscreen, which disables the menu, and then back out, where it’ll still be disabled, because thankfully, it’s too much of a shitfuck program to have any form of consistency

        not to mention how unstable it is, how shitty it performs, and how ram hungry it is because it’s literally a sandboxed chromium browser, which we call a “program”
