Then, as all things, it turned to shit once ot gained market share.

Well yes, it was, but it worked, and it was still better than everything else. I’ve been on discord for 9 years.
Embedded browsers aren’t necessarily bad design. They’re super fast to develop, and if done well, can work super efficiently. A browser can have a billion tabs open and work just fine. The same can go with an electron app given that the devs give 2 shits about optimization.
Though if the Discord team doesn’t care about optimizing the electron app, they wouldn’t give a shit about optimizing a desktop app either.

One of the most predictable outcomes of anyone or anything downfall is all the idiots coming out of the woodwork to loudly proclaim that they never liked it to begin with and actually saw this coming the whole time because they are so very super smart

I mean yea… But whatever man, people can say whatever. It’s not like they’re attacking each other.
