The more time goes by, the more I'm interested about software and hardware that tries to do more with less at the consumer and enthusiast level.
Ex: ESP-based projects and products, Meshtastic/MeshCore, eInk-based displays for lower energy consumption, etc
I feel ya. I recently did a shopping-list-app. Wonderfully minimalistic, a simple php-backend and a super simple watch-app as a bonus. And I got sad somehow how superfast the shit is and could even sync when Theres no 4g or 5g. Why does everything has to have 5 updates per minute and each one adding another thing noone wanted just because...subscriptions. Until the simple initial thing is a bloatware-abomination.
I'm tired, boss....
