I don't think apps running in a web browser are very efficient. Calling something like that "ultra-fast" doesn't seem right.

- saghul 2y agoBut it's not a web browser? It now seems to use Tauri just for UI and do the actual rendering with mpv.

- bilekas 2y agoThere is merit to everything not being on the web. Some things don’t need to be. I don’t have any dog in the fight but seems to me maybe an IpTV service which would be tailored for you could potentially be more responsive as a local application instead. No need to knock that mentality as a generational thing or “old fashioned “ Edit: Merit to things “not” being on the web.
- dylan604 2y agoWhile I have an opposite mindset that not everything needs to be an app and can just be a website whether that is mobile or desktop
- bilekas 2y agoI don’t always subscribe to the expression “just use the right tool for the job” sometimes it’s nice to do things differently just to learn, but in this case, I still see some more benefits in this case of iota application being a bit more “synchronous” and local. But to be fair I have worked for a few years on a cloud streaming provider, but we had “set top boxes” to work with so I am maybe a bit biased.
