The difference on a galaxy S20 in fluidity is quite staggering. Don't get me wrong, I love amethyst and admire the incredible feature rate that nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z is bombarding us with. But would love to have such fluidity on amethyst. Will check source code of both clients to better understand where lies the difference. Is it just amount of rendering components, the amount of data, or maybe more agressive caching...??

Yep, these older phones are hard. Amethyst will use over 1GB of ram just for the caching system and up to 200 threads for the multiple observers in the UI. I think these older phones weren't ready for such a massive use of ram+cpu. But maybe it's just that the Jetpack Compose isnt optimized by older processors.

Am I the only one that sees this? Post not found is super common. I'm using #amethyst. I'm also having issues getting my avatar to work.

I wouldn't call S20 Ultra an old phone. I just tested the jetpack compose sample app ( https://github.com/android/nowinandroid ) and it scrolls very smoothly, not seeing any signs of performance problems with it.
