Tech companies constantly claim they are "green" and sustainable. Yet they continue to ship inefficient software that consumes significantly more power. If these app consumes just 1Wh more per day across a billion users, that is 1,000,000 kWh of wasted electricity every single day.
True sustainability isn't just about recyclable packaging; it's about writing optimized code that doesn't force perfectly good hardware into a landfill prematurely.
Too many moving targets to hit them at once. Currently only thing which can be considered universal cross platform is webpage, which is what electron is.
