@lemmy hi. I have tried to install many android apps for Lemmy on an old android phone. And was disappointed they either don’t support older versions or just can’t work connect (flutter based apps).
I thought open source and libre movement cared about the environment and reducing e-waste. Instead it’s bigcorp who makes sure their apps run on potato phones even kaios feature phone.
Anyways a fork of inifity for Lemmy would be awesome

    U r right. FOSS devs are free to volunteer there time however they like. It is just a shame to see Facebook apps made run on old hardware and the foaa community ignore sustainability.

    not all hardware can run overly bloated newer android versions. Especially with the diverse android market. Third world countries can’t afford upgrading every three years.

    Redreader runs just as fine on an android 4.1 as on android 12. Hopefully they port it to Lemmy.
