And I don’t mean just Google’s Android. Every single iteration. With their stupid memory management for PoWeR sAvInG.
I was typing up a rant on how incredibly boring and stupid Disclosure Day was when I just quickly switched to Firefox to look up a character’s name when Android decided that I was done using my Lemmy client and just outright killed it without even giving it enough time to save my comment to drafts, like it usually does.
You can never be sure when you leave an app whether it will continue doing what it’s supposed to or if it will be frozen or killed.
I’ve got 4 GB of RAM and multiple CPU cores. That should be enough to run a dozen apps in parallel. My frickin N900 with 128 MB had better multitasking than a modern Android smartphone!
I don’t love Android either and would be much happier back on iOS but with everything happening in tech I’ll use Graphene until the seas look a bit smoother
Ugh, don’t get me started on iOS. Wanted to copy some files onto my daughter’s iPad and discovered that it stops the copy operation when you click on the folder that’s being copied. Maybe even when you click anywhere, didn’t dare test that.
I just wish Nokia had open sourced Maemo. That had everything you need fully working.
nokia did open source maemo and it’s still being developed by the community. look up on maemo leste. unfortunately they only support very few phones, including the nokia n900, motorola droid 4 xt894 and the original pinephone.
really hoping i can daily drive that os at some point on some modern powerful hardware
I thought Maemo Leste was a reimplementation effort and not a continuation.
