Description

Is your suggestion related to a problem? Please describe.
Mac tends to freeze a lot when hardware acceleration is frequently used. A known example is patch 2020-002. Also this would help low-end devices running the app.

Describe the solution you'd like
A switch to enable/disable hardware acceleration for graphics.

Describe alternatives you've considered
The switch certainly exists for Discord (which is also electron)...
