      It’s more than fine, “killing” (you’re not really killing them, just more or less clearing a snapshot of the app at the point in time you left it) apps in the background with modern memory management is actually more harmful for battery life.

      Back in the early days of iOS and Android when their memory management and optimization was garbage, yea it was better to clear out the recent apps. But it hasn’t been true for quite a few years now

          In this smartphone is caught the light of Eärendil’s star, set amid the waters of my fountain. It will shine still brighter when night is about you. May it be a light to you in dark places, when all other lights go out.

    I actually often have more unread notifications than my dad.

    Also it’s not simply brightness. It’s their refusal to ever use dark mode that confuses me.

      That, sir is ADHD not being old. If chrome (or Chromium based) isn’t giving you a smily face or Firefox isn’t giving the infinity symbol you’re failing at life.
