Signal package has Electron (which is built on top of Chromium and NodeJS) + Signal app code and assets. So not surprised that it's bigger than Chromium.

It's your 40 Series GPU dropping frames on DWM (the window manager).

Yeah and with Apple, it feels like we buy a license to use their hardware.

A lot of apps you launch do become child processes of explorer.exe. If explorer crashes they might misbehave or become zombie process in Unix terms. It depends on the app though. e.g. Firefox and Edge don’t but Chrome does.

That’s why I run explorer in multi-process mode. Folder windows cannot crash the shell process.

Would you recommend running another Fediverse microblogging software like Pleroma or Calckey? They can use/interact with all Mastodon features just fine. The issues you found…were they Mastodon-specific or Fediverse/ActivityPub in general?

13 years here. Spent a few years before that just lurking.

Same for me but the App Store page for the app still says Twitter. Changing it there requires approval I think.

Similar to maximize but it tries to expand the window only enough to show all the content without needing to scroll.

Although the functionality is still abysmal, you can also double click the title/header bar to zoom.

If you just want a separate session, container tabs will do. No need to create a new profile.

For Chrome, you can also just create a new profile.
