    Don’t forget that Linux isn’t isn’t nearly as aggressive as Android in killing background processes, which means RAM is far more likely to stay hanging, and you probably don’t want to be swapping on the eMMC.

      fair, but we’re still talking about 32 frigging GB of ram in a phone. not that it should count as a best practice baseline but apple sells 16gb laptops as the entry point and tbf at the moment its just enough and their performance is sitting in a completly different league

          it is. i firmly state: fuck apple. now give me a single reason why an underpowered linux device needs 32gb.

              lmao. so you cant give me reason and just post some memes instead. fair enough. idgf. its a cool device. having 32gb of RAM is fucking rad on a phone. but its stupid. its an inbalenced configuration with that weak ass soc. that was my whole point. but you couldnt even prove your point on an academic level.

                  so, running 50+ instances of different programs at the same time is your argument why a phone needs 32gigs of ram. thanks for the discussion dear internet person. especially after i stated several hours ago there might be edge cases.

                    I have 67 tabs open in Firefox at this moment and maybe I don’t want them to reload when I come back to them from Lemmy
