Consumes a lot of memory
Electron app consumes ~150MB RAM for simple text notes. This is more than Evernote uses!

Very simple and clean interface
The design of the interface is very clean & minimalist on all platforms. As the name implies, Simplenote is a no-frill note taking app that does the core note taking functionality very well.

MeticulousAsopus's Experience
Built on Electron, which means, that the app consumes more than 150MB RAM. Counters totally the "simple" in Simplenote.
