I am not a developer and honestly curious about this. What’s Apple’s reason for ditching 32 bit programs? Isn’t backwards compatibility a net positive for both developers and consumers?

Just start from the beginning and get ready. You’re in for one hell of a ride. One of the best gaming experiences out there for sure.

I haven’t been really active on Beehaw for a while now. Where can I read more about Beehaw leaving Lemmy?

You shouldn’t have to rely on the words of Internet random though, go try one out.

That’s true and I have done that a few times. However they weren’t so informative since I was only able to try some recent Android phones at stores so they weren’t used. My close friends and family either have iPhones or midrange/budget Android phones. So I thought my next best bet is to ask others online.

Forgive me for asking if it was obvious in your comment but, when you said

in iOS the UI thread is split from the rest of the compute, and runs at elevated priority if i recall correctly. this used to not be the same case for android

did you mean that now Android does the same?

I don’t know man. Onion is not convenient, and in the modern day and age, especially online, convenience is king.

Edit: I’m dumb, misread you comment as “in the future”, not “in my future”.

I’m a huge pop-punk addict, but lately I’ve been listening to Rolling Along by The Longest Johns on repeat. I don’t know why but it makes me so happy, puts a stupid smile on my face.

Edit: I just watched the music video for the first time. Let’s just say, it’s better to play it in the background lol.
