      You aren’t reading the meme correctly. It’s not a connection, is a coincidence.

      It just says a thing ,that uses 500 mb of ram per instance, had become an industry standard. That’s the happy face. Hey I created a thing for myself but it got used so much it became a standard.

      The second face is like oh shit, I did not make this efficient with its memory usage but now it’s standard and ram prices are terrible so the thing that was sparking joy, is now kind of a problem because its flaws now actually matter

      I do not see the causal connection you are seeing in the meme at all. I just see it pointing out that now is a particularly bad time for Electron apps to be so dominant, which is true.
