Every time we make hardware higher end, developers are getting lazy and crank up the requirements along with it, so you'll be forced to buy the newer model too whether you like it or not.
Remember the days when you had to have 128 MB of RAM to play the most hardware exhausting 3D video game ever?
Now all of the sudden we need an 8 GB of RAM PC just to be able to open a few tabs in Google Chrome.

Meanwhile if the specs remain low, app developers will have no other choice than to make lightweight, native apps without ads, *anal*ytics, Javascript/Electron, a 8k MP4 file forced-autoplaying in the background, or some other unnecessary bloat attached to it.

Even if it means to get more people on board, would be nice to get more Linux users and people in places where human rights are heavily abused like North Korea, China, Hong Kong, Canada, New Zealand, or Australia.

i'm still little pissed off lack of wifi ac. 2.4GHz is too congested. i activated 2.4GHz band just for pinephone.

for that internet browser, they have become memory hogs. some cases if i just shutdown a web browser, then all the cpu and ram waste goes away.
