My problem isn’t so much with electron, it’s more with teams being run on electron. Out of all of the office (or related) applications, as far as I’m aware, teams is the only electron app, and it’s the only one with the kind of problems it gets.
I can run Outlook or Excel for months and nothing goes wrong. The other day, I ran teams for more than 24 straight hours (not doing anything other than chatting, and the occasional maybe 30m video meeting, or 15 minute call), and when I joined a video meeting, it ran like complete garbage. It was choppy and jittery. Just really bad. The fix was to close teams and reopen it.
That’s why I don’t like electron. It’s the only ms office related app that uses electron that I know of, and it’s also the only one that I know of which needs regular maintenance (by shutting it down, and starting it up again) in order to function correctly.
What’s wrong with Electron?
