If your device has more than 60 hz, perhaps that feature might mask this a bit, but definitely stock launcher will always have smoother animations than third parties if you are using full screen gestures, I am currently in MIUI (I was on AOSP before) and well, I can’t even install another launcher here, but I can confirm it is as smooth as it can be.
The only thing you are missing is smooth animations while minimizing apps or triggering the app switcher, swipe between apps works fine.
Exactly, thus I am not using anything but Lawnchair with Quick Switch (requires root) as a launcher replacement.
They should just let us install icon packs, third party launchers are broken since A12 or A11 if you use full screen gestures (and I would not use android buttons even if I get paid for it lol).
The pastel colors are washed out and unattractive.
And then it’s me who thinks A12 was the best UI change that Android has had… But don’t mind me, I came from iOS something at that date, so I am kinda used to “simpler” UIs.
I do agree you should be able to customize it yourself, AFAIK you can do so if you are rooted.
Why only limit it to one model?
Yeah, many of us hoard a lot of tabs, for the better for worse, but even after some simple web searches you can gather a lot of links quickly, so it is always handy to have a good tab management.
OP said he’s using a private tracker, are all private trackers guaranteed to work with the arr stack?
Well, if my memory serves well, Ublock Origin has been in Firefox mobile for a long time already but I get you.
Although even before I did the switch I rarely saw ads on Google because I have always used DNS ad blocking (whether using my pi-hole or AdAway root version) but yeah Ublock Origin is just so much better.
Nah, my device is not high end, but it ships with a SD 865, and 6 GB of RAM.
Have you used Chrome recently? It is just a better experience with Android, except because of the ads and shitty Google’s hand lol.
It feels so good to have your grouped tabs always accessible at the bottom and you can quickly switch just by tapping the little icon.
What issues are you running into?
Tab management is plain bad, and the UI doesn’t feel snappy as, let’s say, Cromite or Chrome.
All those are paid off because of the extension ability in Firefox.
Have you tried to debloat your phone?
I feel like I have seen this news since forever, I am happily living my life with Firefox… Although the android mobile really needs some love.
It is great, but it never feels smoother than Summit, Boost or Sync :/
Especially while scrolling, swiping back posts or going to your subscriptions.
I can’t use Lemmy without mark as read on scroll and clear read posts (client side), are those both features on Jerboa?
Maybe I have been a little less active, but that is because Sync for Lemmy is too broken to use.
My two best alternatives are Boost (currently using it) then Summit for Lemmy :)
Yeah totally agree with this, macOS is way more efficient than Windows, so 8 GB doesn’t feel like utter shit, I would expect it to be similar to Linux with the same amount.
My main MacBook Pro has 16 GB of RAM so for my usage that never is a problem, but my gf got a M1 MacBook Air with 8 GB and we both use it from time to time, and it is snappy and the RAM is never an issue, even if the machine never goes off lol.
I remember my colleague days when I stopped using USBs in favor of Dropbox, I felt I was living in the future.
They are quite annoying to me, especially if I am multitasking fast, it will kinda get stuck in the middle of the usage… And that is not nice.
