"Why is the #Nextcloud desktop client so big?!

[i2h3@toot.community]

Today, I am happy to share an update on why the #Nextcloud desktop client is so big. Or better said: now significantly smaller!

@i2h3 Nice!

@i2h3 Nextcloud not only got smaller but also much nicer! Thank you for your great work, and also, wow, your blog looks so cool.

@i2h3 Thx not only for the „fix“ but also for the detailed explanation, surprisingly interesting read (for me as a non-coding person)

[i2h3@toot.community]

@yves Thank you 🥰

[i2h3@toot.community]

@skittles You are welcome! I was a bit insecure about it being detailed enough, actually.

[skittles@berlin.social]

@i2h3 For me as an engineer from a completely different field it’s just the right amount to be interesting to read, I don’t know if it’s enough information for an expert.

Although I would think those would probably check the github repository and discuss it with their peers there anyway.

@i2h3 thats a great evolution. I just hope it was done by humans, but apart from that code size reduction is always good.

@i2h3 Thank you so much, the qt web engine dependency was driving me crazy!
