lol, nobody has a computer anymore...

🙄 Ok maybe in euorpoorsville that might be true

What?

Approximately 70% of the world's population relies on mobile devices. Globally, cell phones generate nearly two-thirds of all internet traffic. And the 30% left include all business computers and laptops where people can't just use for whatever.

Sorry but those are bad statistics, because it's impossible to get this data reliably and do any meaningful extrapolation off of it. Most people with phones ALSO have a computer; but yes most internet traffic is on phone because some find it easier, especially when on the go, to use their phone. The only people I know who only use phones are completely tech illiterate 60+ year olds, who of course would never run a lightning server anyway. Of course that might be self bias, but that's my experience

Then take another one: 77% of all CPUs made per year are mobile, only 23 % are x86. That stat includes ALL servers. If you split by OS, you get a similar range: Android: 36.1% Windows: 29.5% iOS: 17.5% macOS: 5.8% Again, including all business devices. Usage on nostr is similar pattern. Nobody has a PC. It's a thing of the past. Most people I know only have access to a desktop because of work machines. And they cannot do anything in those.

I would like to not use a laptop but not being able to run any x86 software in android terminal is a problem. You still use a desktop right?

KEK

100% of the *relevant* population has a computer. We don't cater to the dregs here.

That's an interesting stat, didn't know this one, thanks for sharing. I wonder what the stats look like of you filter out the outliers on both edges (really low end CPUs, both arm and x86, as well as really high end server CPUs). I suspect (though I'm not confident anymore haha) that the majority of those mobile ones are for the low end devices. And also, people change phones very frequently, while they don't change computers until they because unusable for them.

Sensible tech advice, now let's apply similar logic to nutrition and ditch the grains.
