  • Why are (mobile) browsers so big?

  • Wait what? They force you to use their authenticator? How, when, what?

  • 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!

  • Why are (mobile) browsers so big?

    Jump

  • I'm glad to hear that, I had fun, too. Thank you for your time and have an amazing day, kind stranger

  • Why are (mobile) browsers so big?

    Jump

  • 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

  • Why are (mobile) browsers so big?

  • Thanks for the tip, I like the UI

  • Why are (mobile) browsers so big?

  • 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

  • Why are (mobile) browsers so big?

    Jump

  • 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.

  • Why are (mobile) browsers so big?

  • ~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

  • OpenCreativity - The interoperability layer between Adobe Alternatives

    Jump

  • Yeah, Darktable is more of a Lightroom replacement

  • Is it worth it using Rust+Axum for backend instead of Node.js? In which situations would you do so?

    Jump

  • Learning Rust is probably always worth it. It's more efficient, lasts longer and is safer, I would try it

  • What about you?

    Jump

  • Try The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It's pretty cool and has some very complex sentences

  • FOSS Microsoft Office for Linux

    Jump

  • I don't think anyone should use it, no. It is technically an option, though

  • FOSS Microsoft Office for Linux

    Jump

  • I know, that's why I use LibreOffice. ~OnlyOffice~ OpenOffice was the only thing I could think of

  • Lightweight distro for home server?

    Jump

  • Debian

  • Linux way way slower than Windows?

    Jump

  • This is purely based on my experience but somehow I think that Pop OS works better on laptops. System76 is a laptop manufacturer so it makes sense they'd optimize for that, I suppose. You may want to give that a try
