Also all have the same magnitude of latency and lag. At least you know if one of them bugs you, they all will.

There's a bunch of Electron powered apps that feel really snappy, definitely faster and snappier than some default apps Apple ships on macOS these days.

Examples for me would be: VSCode and Linear

I should have put the example I was comparing to: VIM. I like VIM as an editor because it's extremely fast and works well once you adapt to it.

I'm sure VSCode and Linear are fast, nice, and fine. I just hated the lag/latency compared to my terminal text editor.

A few Electron apps are acceptable. But it's still very noticeable how less responsive they are compared to Win32 programs.
