165??? That’s insane, you may be better off with KeePassDX. It combines password managing and TOTP
You’re absolutely right, I see it now, too. Thanks!
I’m glad to hear that, I had fun, too. Thank you for your time and have an amazing day, kind stranger
I understand, my confusion was caused by the misleading app size shown in App Info. It’s actually like 70MB so my question is dumb. I’m sorry for wasting your time
Thanks for the tip, I like the UI
It shows up as an installable app. Although, I just checked the repo of the /e/ browser and it is probably bigger than it appears to be in App Info. I’ll edit the post rq
Yeah, of course a lot is cached and stored in user data but I don’t get why the app itself has to be so big. It’s not significantly faster.
Edit: Never mind all that, I edited the post, the app size wasn’t correctly shown.
It does pretty much everything a browser like Firefox, Focus, Mull, etc would do so I think it’s fair to call it a browser.
Also, the Android System WebView package is not installed on /e/OS
Edit: Yeah, never mind all that. The browser’s size isn’t shown correctly and some kind of WebView is installed so it may use that. The repo is about 70MB which makes far more sense.
I am aware of the complexity of a modern browser. Still, 80+ megabytes for a simple browser like Focus seems excessive. Especially when the Bromite-based /e/OS browser can provide more functionality for an eighth of the size
Learning Rust is probably always worth it. It’s more efficient, lasts longer and is safer, I would try it
Bro. We just don’t want some stupid money hungry company harshing our mellow here.
It isn’t a new thing for companies to take a cool and open thing and just fuck it right up. Read this: https://ploum.net/2023-06-23-how-to-kill-decentralised-networks.html You may learn something…
Wouldn’t work. If there’s so many diamonds, they’d just kind of lose their value. Also, who are you gonna sell them to, if everyone has them?
Although it could kind of be a new currency that excludes the rich, making their wealth at least a little useless.
I fully agree on the premise, but I think it needs refining.
