  • it tries to check which instances are offline, to only redirect you to working ones. reddit can be redirected to libreddit/redlib, which makes reddit unable to track you, and these frontends are also much lighter on resources (ram, cpu, network traffic, cognitive load)

  • some strip at the top, another at the bottom.. what are these? they have unfamiliar pictures and no text labels at all.

    I regularly help people who have difficulties in understanding and using the government's 2FA login, even after they used it multiple times already. they are not disabled, some of them elder, others are middle aged, they are regular people with a job and a car, but they still have difficulties with using a popular cloud based password manager, and remembering which login method to choose because there is 3 and only 1 works for everyone.
    this 2 panel setup is nothing to me, but it is more complicated than 2FA to them.

  • It's lighter in memory. on android (development) it has been said for a few years now that it's better to use them for most cases, because android apps tend to use a ton of icons and this way they are small, themable, scaleable (the other option is to include multiple versions with diff resolutions), and can even have animations. it can basically save a lot of space.

    but of course that will make no difference when the apps are 180 MB, partly because of the same 30 MB native libs being bundled for 4 different CPU architectures, because wasteful the dev didn't bother to produce different APKs for the different kinds of CPUs. and similar project mismanagement things.

  • you can import all your mail into proton or another, and then set up autoforwarding in gmail until you update the email in the most important services.

    you don't have to delete the address, but deleting all mails there (after importing them to a new service and getting a full local backup) might be a good idea

  • I think the transfer/roaming should be able to work fine without a mesh system too. I remember that OpenWRT has like 2 settings I think, that are not related to the mesh mode but can help device roaming, but by default disabled for compatibility reasons
