The price may be midrange but the specs definitely are not.

I've had over 100 tabs open on my Firefox on Pixel 6 for months now. What are you doing that you can't keep tabs open on Firefox?

[-] limerod@reddthat.com 1 points 9 months ago

Let's just say. Some Games, streaming, social media and general apps like tasker, samsung health, sleep as android, among others. Your pixel 6 has 8gigs of ram. my samsung had 6gigs of physical ram. It wasn't until I switched to a 12gb ram device the reload issue was mitigated (not solved).

The issue has been present since the fenix rewrite from 2020. Here's the issue from the github archive: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/12731#event-8105829420

That particular one is done as of October 2022. However, it looks like you are doing more intensive work on your phone than I am on mine. Perhaps I just lack imagination, but I never could figure out what I could do with tasker to improve my usage, and I understand what it can do. It's just my life apparently doesn't demand such solutions.

I personally never experienced the issues described in Firefox. Perhaps I was just lucky. I will say that Chromite is definitely snappier than Firefox. If you haven't tried it yet, take a look. It is chock full of privacy protecting features, too.

Actually, it's not. They just moved to bugzilla. Hers the open issue: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1807364

All chrome like browsers are fast. I was using bromite before it was abandoned. I have samsung internet as backup. But, I want my add-ons hence I continue to stick with fennec(Fdroid version of firefox). My current phone has 12GB of physical + 12GB of virtual ram. So, the tab reload issue is not that noticeable. But, I need to reload firefox when I toggle dark mode making that moot. The slowness I'm used to. Browsing the web without ublock I'm not.

It's nothing serious. Just some QOL improvements like turning on auto rotate when opening youtube, Netflix. Or turning on flight mode from 22:00 to 6:00, charging sounds to know when my phone starts charging, stops charging is fully charged

You can check taskernet for some projects: https://taskernet.com/?public&tags=Basics&time=AllTime Check the chop motion example for flashlight as an example: https://taskernet.com/shares/?user=AS35m8ne7oO4s%2BaDx%2FwlzjdFTfVMWstg1ay5AkpiNdrLoSXEZdFfw1IpXiyJCVLNW0yn&id=Profile%3AChop+Motion+Flashlight+And+Others
