@louiscouture @calculsoberic because it causes software to use ridiculous amounts of memory and processing power while being a security risk on the web

@louiscouture @calculsoberic because javascript is a scripting language, able to glue together frameworks. No programming required. Which is what "app development" is all about almost all the time.
Also, open an electron app like discord and look at the memory consumption. Think about how such a simple chat client can cause this.

@louiscouture @calculsoberic and for the record, I do not defend c++ but it's still a lot better than js

@devnull @Mek101 no idea. The poll has 4 choices. I use Huksy, not fedilab.
