Kids these days - calling 8mb “a bit of memory” :) (yes indeed it’s not that much these days but I remember when 8mb was enough to run a multitasking OS with a ton of high-end applications.
Right? I left it out of my recent thread about BREW development, but we were actually worried because our first app took up 120KB of phone storage space!
back then IT was not the workhorse of 95% of modern life, and only a handful of physicists needed computers for very niche usecases that needed next to nothing in resources
You can run a fully functional voip and chat client within that order of magnitude (Ripcord) whereas the 'real client' (Discord) doing the same thing is 10x that.
Don't downplay the resource wastes on nothing of value.
I'd understand if this were about something taking half a giga of ram like too many applications do nowadays. But this is a wrapper adding 8mb of ram. Your efforts should be re-directed somewhere else.
