Android has similar problems. Even Amethyst sometimes makes my phone quite hot. Sorry, my phone is not that powerful 😅
There are lighweight alternatives such as Yana, Nostrmo, and Nozzle for Android.
does it work on older android versions? like 2-3 years ago
Yes it is still working, if i'm not mistaken the minimum version required is Android 8.0. But yeah, older phone usually have low cpu performance so it is quite slow and much lag 😅
^ True
I find putting an open source ROM on an older phone makes them run much faster. Especially Samsung's! Even a Galaxy S5 can have up-to-date #Android using https://lineageos.org/
And Amethyst flies on this old Pixel 5 I'm typing on. Flies straight into a segfault sometimes, but that's what "app under active development" actually means :-p
Yes, LineageOS is really great especially for older phones which usually don't have support for GrapheneOS. I wish my phone are supported by LineageOS 😅
