I've got Slack open right now, I'm a member of 2 teams and it's using 1.5 GB of memory across all of its processes.
I'm wondering if you think that's an acceptable memory usage? I don't personally feel that's acceptable for an app that isn't Photoshop, a video production suite or a 3D modelling program.
I'm a member of a third "occasional team", but I don't dare open that because I really don't wish to give more RAM to Slack!
Curious: What OS are you using and what's your total memory usage for Slack and all of its helper processes?
Another problem with the Electron app: there were drive-by trolls in the public Clojure Slack team a couple of weeks ago, because it's possible to open the JS in the Electron app and interfere with user role permissions and notify thousands of users with extremely obscene photo messages all at once.
I'd switch to a proper native app that respects the norms of its host platform in a heartbeat.
