Why not use Android in the first place then? I mean, it works fine on pretty much any device.

If you use swap (excluding hibernation) it means you need more ram.

Great! Used Arch for a while, with KDE. I’m now using Debian with Gnome permanently.

I’m not familiar with Blend OS, but if your goal is being able to run Android apps you can also install Waydroid yourself in multiple distro’s. I’m running Debian with Gnome on my Surface Go 2 using the Surface kernel and Waydroid with Gapps. It runs really well.

That’s bullshit, it’s still free for the normal lts support. Only if you want support after that you’ll have to pay, or upgrade to the next version for free.

Same, many elements are blurry when I use scaling in Arch with KDE.

Exactly, most, if not all, os’s do this.

Ram usage is really nothing to worry about depending on the amount you have. Windows will free ram where needed as long as there is enough. If ram is not being used by applications it will be used for other things (it will be cached I believe?). If almost no ram is being used it means some things might take longer to load.

Windows on my Surface Go 2 used about 3-4GB of ram when idle, while on my work laptop with 64GB ram it uses about 10-12GB. But if necessary applications can use some of that ram that’s normally being used in idle.

I do agree about Linux distros being faster, that’s my experience as well.

So basically they had enough examples to learn from, but completely ignored it and do the same?

I used Edge since the beginning, until they decided to fill it with bloat. It’s getting worse than Chrome. Now I’m using Firefox that is still a browser instead of an application trying to replace all applications.

Same here, the only downside is that I’m having issues with some thumbnails that don’t show. For example for the Cox 'n Crendor Show I had to find a soundcloud rss link for Antennapod to show the image. It didn’t work when I subscribed to that podcast from within the app.
