MacVoices #21157: MacVoices Live! - 1Password, Electron, and Why It Does (or Doesn't) Matter (1)

The MacVoices Live! panel took on the furor over 1Password's new beta version that is written in Electron. What is Electron (and Rust), does it matter, and why should you care? Mike Schmitz, Jeff Gamet, Guy Serle, Mark Fuccio, Jim Rea, David Ginsburg, and Brittany Smith all have thoughts and they aren't all the same either. (Part 1)
