        My phone battery just a few weeks back started to drain faster as well. When I used reddit it did too, when I switched to lemmy it stopped, until a little back.

        Was thinking it’s time for another factory reset, it’s just such a pain.

          I use an Android app called SD Maid that cleans up my old-as-the-hills phone. As soon as I use the app my phone is faster.

        Probably one of the planned obsolescence updates. My Galaxy watch just got two of them and now it needs to be charged once a day.

      GrapheneOS would be the perfect OS for all phones if it would actually work on a phone that is not a Google Pixel.

      Until GrapheneOS is going to have support for other hardware, it will be going nowhere really slow

        They recently announced a partnership with Motorola Mobility (a subsidiary of China’s Lenovo) to offer it on a non-Google phone. Is this what you had in mind?

          Having a Moto, this is freaking exciting. Because the Pixel’s iPhone-wannabe qualities (lack of expandable storage, chiefly) irk me so.

          Well sorta… This means that we only need like 200 more partnerships and we’re there!

          Even with motorola support, you’d still have only a tiny part of the market. I don’t own a google or motorola phone, so now what?

            I don’t own a google or motorola phone, so now what?

            Campaign for your favorite phone manufacturer to make a phone with the features required by GrapheneOS, and when they do, make that your next phone.

            Or use something other than GrapheneOS.

    Anytime I see someone describe some form of software, I do generally understand what they’re trying to mean, but I can’t help but think of it as software that runs so inefficiently that it consumes a ton of power.

    Also, hey man, stop using whatsapp.
