It kills me when I download a simple app to my phone that’s 60 mb. When I was a child we built the world off 1.44 mb floppies. How did we stray so far from God’s light?
AliExpress has no right to be that large, neither Opera. No reason to store that much cache. (Edit: cache and cookies are only around 500MB total. Hmmm…) Also, I set F-Droid to keep cached apps for 1 hour, what the hell is this?
I kind of forgot to manage my storage, as I usually do until I have like 5GB left…

Even 10years ago, I considered having an app over around 40mb to be huge, but now 60mb is kind of the norm
Isn’t it about a web engine being roughly 60MB? 😕
Do you mean by that that many apps are just website wrappers? Or did I get it wrong?
Indeed many apps tend to be that, at least many of my apps are open source at least and they tend not to have trackers and other bloat😅
I think I was thinking about desktop apps when I answered, but I feel out of context now 😬
Ohhh, I was talking about android apps😆
Hmm, I havent checked much how big computer applications are on average
The Uber App on my phone is 1 GB!
The fuck? (Edit: Although, does it have a map?)
Hmm…

Data will always adapt to storage size.
Amen, we didn’t have fancy “game engines” or “media assets” and we liked it.
