Does running amethyst on your phone with dark mode enabled affect the performance?
Besides pixels being off? Not really.
But, in theory, my phone is having to perform calculations to switch colours constantly, right? Or no.
Do you and most developers run dark mode or not?
Or is there anything else plebs can do to make it run optimally?
Last update was smoother for me than Ina while.
Yes but the display energy is not spent on the switch but when the pixel is on.
Are you aware of Amethyst crashing about every hour or so of use, and more quickly crashing when moving through the follows list and scanning through follows and follwers of profiles viewed from the personal profile follow list?
Are you also aware of poor backspace behavior in the message edit box under GrapheneOS? You'd have to experience it to see what it does, but its maddening to edit messages inside the app.
Yep, this version helps some of that. But it's is about memory. When the app loads too much data (like all followers) will crash when it's too much.
The GrapheneOS keyboard issue seems to be on their side.
are they dealing with it upstream or do you not have visibility on that?
It's between them and Google. I have no idea how or when they will fix it.
#[2] amethyst was update , when damus update? Two month was passed
There was an update the other day. If you want frequent updates you can join testflight: https://damus.io/testflight
Oh nice 🤟🏽
Are there spaces?
All right
The beta test version is more stable and the software is not easy to crash
I've had the same message box issue on calyxos too
I haven't seen it in any other apps running on graphene, and the search engines haven't yielded a related issue specific to graphene but I haven't searched graphenes tickets yet
Not specific to GrapheneOS.

Not related to the OS.

It's the same with me. The issue is just in amethyst. Every thing else is great here on Amethyst.
It's definitely graphene's keyboard. There is a longer discussion here:

pressing backspace when creating notes does remove the last whitespace between words too · Issue #154 · vitorpamplona/amethyst
Briefing pressing backspace when creating notes does remove the last white space between words left to the cursor too. Exact behavior differs from ...
Thanks for the info
Thank you Vitor!
Trying florisboard on graphene. The behavior is much better!
Wen NIP-26?


Not planning to
Thanks for the update! Backswipe got degraded a bit. Entering a note and backswiping returns me back to the first note in a tab not to the position where i entered. This happens both in conversations and new thread tab.
Also yesterday the app was crashing on this long note frim Peter Todd View quoted note →
Hopefully will be addee back to the official #fdroid repo... not sure why it was removed though
Holy 💩, that is so much faster!
