devs are spoiled. building software like everyone has an unlimited 5G data plan and a last gen phone. if you do the opposite (build for low end, low connectivity, spotty network access) you end up with something that works for the lowest common denominator and feels ultra snappy on higher end phones and better connections.

Thank you for thinking about people who don't NEED a new phone every year. I have two phones, a 5-year old Android for the normie life and a 2nd-hand pixel 7 for my every day life. My laptop is 7 years old. My streaming rig is 8 years old and my gaming PC 5.
Microsoft decided to include browser extensions as software as main apps or something like that which is ridiculous. Complaining about free cutting edge freedom tech being not top notch development is pretty stupid in my opinion
