Sounds more like a cure to me
It’s almost as though Apple’s main focus is selling devices instead of harvesting user data for ads. iOS has so many anti-tracking and privacy features built into it that I feel exhausted thinking about all the mods I need to make to factory software on an Android phone to bring it up to the same level.
Certainly iOS has its flaws, and I miss easier ad blocking, but overall I’m more satisfied with the experience.
OP, I mostly agree with what you’re saying about Android. I’ve been a user since 2010, and development of mainline Android stagnated about a decade ago. Google isn’t really trying very hard anymore. I got an iPhone this round as my main device. I still have plenty of other Android devices as well as my last phone (OnePlus 8T) that I will continue to use, but I’m enjoying most of the change in user experience to iOS. It’s smoother and better thought out in most respects.
If your device is really that slow though, are you sure the battery is good? They will definitely slow down when the battery ages to prevent sudden shutdowns if the CPU were to try to use more power than the battery can supply. I think that a bad battery can do the same even if it’s not old.
If not that, how is the custom ROM scene for your phone? That may be a solution if it’s possible. Manufactures like Samsung sometimes go overboard with additions to the OS that just screw things up. Samsung was probably the worst offender in this regard back when the first Galaxy devices launched.
So you’re saying that doing too much coke can result in the loss of taste?
The owner of the site (Ernest, IIRC) has some health issues that have kept him from being as active as he had wanted. He also wrote the frontend code as an alternative to the Lemmy software. Mbin continues onward as a fork of Kbin.
I wish him the best. I hope he gets better. I know too well what chronic illness can do to a person.
You can be reasonably sure more unpopular changes to the site are incoming if they’re preemptively preventing blowback at scale.
Uh, excuse me, but Gabe buys submarines thankyouverymuch
Thank you for working on this and for sharing with everyone!
Well you may be right and Valve may only be aiming to support some of the already-existing handhelds out there that are ARM based.
Valve does know how to play the long game on support, so time will tell.
I could see a budget Deck with an ARM processor, but I still doubt the flagship model wouldn’t be x86-64
Perhaps a passthrough to a VM running Windows would work? Though that’s probably a lot of work unless you already use one.
Firefox Mobile supports most desktop extensions now, so Ublock Origin works too
Report it to Hello Games. They’ve been very responsive in the past.

Well then those people must be made to understand our peaceful ways… by force!
Did you check the Discover store?
Also, Steam Link is another easy option for remote control.

He’s robbing our poor, starved healthcare system of revenue that is rightly theirs!
I’ll never fully understand why humans are so quick to judge and offer non-constructive criticism on someone else’s creative work. It seems like the least knowledge are most often the loudest in this regard.
