Make App more lightweight

I am using the Desktop version of Logseq on Windows and noticed its unusual installation size.

  • The app itself: 565 MB
  • The previous version it keeps: 562 MB
  • Logseq-win-x64-0.9.20-full.nupkg: 198 MB
  • Caches: 200 MB

This makes 1.4 GB without the actual notes, which is ridiculous for a program that… displays text…
The fact Logseq uses electron is not a sufficient excuse for this. Would it be possible to switch out some routines or libraries to decrease the installation size? This will also improve loading times…

Logseq is an Electron app, meaning it ships with a full browser.
With that technology, you won’t be able to get a much smaller footprint unfortunately
