Yeah, I find it interesting too…
PSP and Vita handheld this feature better than DS and 3DS yeah, regardless it was a more than welcome future :p
I kinda remember it was a feature in the PS3 too? But you might be right about Xbox One and PS4… Because I remember being lazy turning on my PS3 and knowing it didn’t have many background tasks (like downloading updates and such).
Now that I think about it, some Chinese handhelds (like the Miyoo Mini which uses Linux) do not have the suspend feature (like android handhelds) we are talking about, the workaround for that one is nice though, it actually creates a save state then it turns off the screen and audio for several minutes, then it eventually powers off and when you turn it on it loads again the last game played and quick loads the save state (with Onion OS). I don’t expect something like that coming for PC games, but heck, something must be done lol.
I appreciate this setting still existing, especially because some custom skins/UI can be too slow, but IMHO I prefer a balanced/stock value as the animations nowadays are so polished and smooth that I’d rather use it that way than butchering them with faster speeds…
I am using MIUI right now and it has its own version of this, so I just use “balanced mode”.
When I use AOSP I always use stock because even my SD 865 feels weird when the animation is too fast but the app is still loading, I think it kills the momentum lol.
I wonder if it is too hard for Google to convince Apple to implement this with iOS, even in the form of an app…
I just used pairdrop.net a couple hours ago because I was too lazy to install LocalSend in my gf’s iPhone and it was a breeze to use to share a short video from there to my Android device…
I am gonna cheat and name multiple apps with the same/similar purpose:
Honorable mention to Kinestop, finally being able to use my phone on a vehicle? It was the last place where I would dare to doom scroll!
I seriously could go on… I have too many apps.
Racoon for lemmy
This is the 1st time I decided to check about this (I have heard that name before here), after a 1st glance it looks a lot like Boost for Lemmy, and since Boost seems to be the best working client for me at this moment (image and posts load for example is way faster than Summit, Voyager and Eternity), in terms of speed Sync for Lemmy is faster, but it is so broken with my current instance that is not worth to use it anymore.
I might install Raccoon soonish :)
I like my Vita, but not for PSP games, they look pretty bad to my eyes, especially if you have used a PSP 3000 or Go (my other Sony handhelds) or PPSSPP.
