Technology

@doctorzeromd @sailsperson I assume any smartphone - they often have comparable specifications to laptops but few keying options that don't suck.

I was actually trying to call out basically every smartphone out there because they have to be packing multicore CPUs with at least 3 GB of RAM in order to be functional.

My current phone has 2 GB, and almost all of it is dedicated to the Android system itself, even without any shells (i.e. not MiUI or anything like that, which is basically Android OS plus something on top, eating up even more resources), and can be really painful to use at times. I seem to have won some performance back by switching to Via browser instead of the native Google Chrome, YMusic instead of the native YouTube app, and RedReader for Reddit (might kiss goodbye to that some time soon, as we all know) - the rest of the applications I use either lack a proper mobile version of the website (viewing some with the desktop option on is horrible), a lightweight alternative, or both. I also don't have the memory to download every single app for the websites I use as they keep suggesting - more importantly, I don't want to.

When I'm on PC, I use the web applications available for nearly every single thing I use - but oh no, I can't do that on mobile, I need an app, which I'd have to update frequently, wasting even more space with the piss-poor solutions they go for in the name of profits.

Damn I'm getting worked up talking software and especially the mobile world.
