• Too many Mac apps are being built with Electron

  That argument would hold more power if there wasn't an existing native client for Slack and Discord, made by one person, with all the features I needed, working with absolutely no lag and minimal resource use, working on MacOS, Linux, Windows. Unfortunately the development stopped, or I'd still use it. https://cancel.fm/ripcord/. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Ask HN: Recommendations for an alternative native chat client? (Slack, Discord)

  Https://cancel.fm/ripcord/ Used it before, worked OK. Now I use Matrix, so I don't need it anymore. Neat trick: AppImages are squashfs compressed filesystems, so they can have slow startup etc. Fix this with ./app.AppImage --appimage-extract, find the binary in the created folder and run that one instead, so that you pay the decompression cost only once. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• A Slack clone in 5 lines of bash

  There are a bunch of features in slack beyond the core chat stuff, like: 1.

Meta data about others, like their timezone or how to pronounce their... - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• I’m having some cpu performance issues and I’m wondering whether if it’s time to upgrade? Using a 2017 MacBook Pro 13inch.

  All three of these are web browsers (slack and vscode are built on electron) that are notoriously RAM-hungry. If you don't want to buy new hardware, switching to using the slack web-app or using a third party client like Ripcord will remove one of those browsers, and using an IDE that isn't a web browser would take out another. You may also find that another browser like Firefox uses less memory than Chrome. Source: about 1 year ago

• Have you ever met in person someone you met online?

  A couple of years ago I had a period of about 4 years where I was traveling abroad. Months before my trip I'd use social meeting sites like badoo.com or latinamericancupid.com. When I'd meet someone that I found interesting, we'd chat for several weeks. Then phone calls and video calls... To really get to know the person. Although you can never be too sure about who someone is having met them online. It definitely... Source: about 2 years ago
