I’m not certain, but given that I’ve not seen a lot of UI lag in recent android releases I believe they must have fixed it.

in iOS the UI thread is split from the rest of the compute, and runs at elevated priority if i recall correctly. this used to not be the same case for android. having said that, my android devices run just fine as long as they have plenty of ram. so, if you buy a flagship samsung it usually comes with 12gb ram. the current minimum I’d say is 8gb. used to have the pixel 4xl with 6gb which kept lagging… how the situation develops in 2 to 3 years and if 12gb is still enough remains to be seen. in general apple is better with long-term device support (up to 5 years). all this is of course very subjective and depends on ur usage and if u game a lot on ur device.

I’m sorry if my subjective comment offended you. I do like the fediverse, and I did highlight that I’m happy to help improve lemmy instead of jumping to a different platform. Of course you’re always free to take a single line of my reply and build your argument out of it. Being able to admin an instance to ensure that people dont call each other names and ensuring a space where everyone wants to participate is a great goal to stand behind and not in the least a ya-sayers echo chamber. But of course any ability to admin may also be over used to create just that.

Beehaw is my favorite lemmy instance, its actually the only one with meaningful discussions and lively community. I’m grateful for your time and commitment towards a place where people are nice and have meaningful discussions. You the admins do all the work, you have to make the call. I will come with you but I’m not certain how it will go. If there are easy to use mobile apps and notifications I’ll be more likely to get notified about new content. I just haven’t seen any old school boards that tick all those boxes. So, if I have a vote (which I believe I dont) I vote to stay and rather help you improve the admin tools.

How does one install that, and where? Is this in a VM or on actual hardware?

Thank you for providing this interesting insight. I didn’t know any of this. I hope JPL will be able to build up the necessary in house experience again to not having to depend on contractors. Maybe in the distant future mankind will be able to actually work together on this problem space instead of being busy with corporate infighting.

As Douglas Adams put it: most people where only concerned with the movement of small green pieces of paper. The amount of small green pieces of printable paper is completely and utterly irrelevant in comparison to the next milestone mankind can achieve and must achieve to survive. (My personal, admittedly strong, opinion of course)

There are different types of mattresses, most of it is personal preference, except for making sure they are all full body so that no house guests accumulate inside. I personally prefer mem foam mix with some other material that makes the mattress just soft enough. As mentioned by others the mattress will not magically fix everything but it can greatly help not to make it worse.

If installed on your phone it will keep syncing your contacts, which is what most parties are interested in anyway (should be the main reason to uninstall). Your options are IRC, xmpp and matrix (element) if self hosted (matrix is somewhat in question about its origins).

If your OK with arm I’d say the macbooks and especially the macbook air are ready with asahi for daily use. I’m personally considering getting to run linux on as daily driver.

Dont worry, they will shut all that down eventually, dont trust google with any data you actually want to keep for a long time. Short term is fine.

Looks nice, but I moved to Joplin from my ancient evernote account recently. Joplin (fully #FOSS) and syncs via nextcloud, Dropbox or others and is fully end to end encrypted.

Woaah, nice. thanks for pointing out Vinny, that’s awesome.

Oh god, here you go the next “enshitification” victim… Matrix isn’t really that good of a replacement, I wonder what we will end up with.
