I'm making big progress on the #tauri version of #deltachat_desktop
So far it only takes 38 mb 📦 (78mb installed) in package size instead of the 150mb 📦(323mb installed) of the Delta Chat Desktop #electron version.
I'll keep you updated in this thread.
Thanks to #nlnet & #ngi0_entrust for funding this project: https://nlnet.nl/project/DeltaTauri/.
