Yo, it is INCREDIBLE to play with bigger screen possibilities for nostr:npub17tyke9lkgxd98ruyeul6wt3pj3s9uxzgp9hxu5tsenjmweue6sqq4y3mgl!! 🔥🔥👀

For now this 320x240 ili9341 is the sweet spot. Bigger, much easier to read, smooth framerate, and I've already adapted the code to handle the 3:2 aspect ratio.

The tiny Waveshare display hat has served us well, but a new wave of better, cooler build possibilities will be on the horizon!

If I try to push even more pixels -- 320x480 (ili9486) -- we hit some hard performance limits of the available python drivers out there.

For now the above 320x240 experiments look awesome enough, so I'm not placing a high priority on higher resolution screens.

Though by using some naive "improvements" I did get better framerates. But with some tradeoffs...
