    To be fair, It's more comparable to MP3 players in the 50 to 100 usd range. (See zishan, f.audio, hiby, shanling, fiio, xduoo) The difference is it is using open source hardware an…

    Jpeg-XL is light enough to not require hardware support. Did you tried to transcode a PNG to avif? It's painful. Not the case with Jpeg XL. Meanwhile I urge you to read this articl…

    I could not make it work. Did you had to do anything special? From what I learned, only apps that target Android 12and above could have this background update feature. I'm on Andro…

    We need an alternative from Bandcamp that is a co-op fediverse kind of system. I know there is people working on making alternatives like ninaprotocol.com but it's tainted by web3/…

    Iirc, cjxl is smart enough to do it automatically. cjxl input.jpg output.jxl The cjxl --help and cjxl -v -v --help pages are very well done and you'll find the option to explicitly…

    From what I know the improvement is minor but noticable. There is less ghosting, a bit more contrast and it's more reactive to the touch. The newer models can even play videos half…

    I really like it, it's fresh and friendly. it has a narrow option to have that compact spacing like iosevka which is my favorite. I can't use regular width font anymore after being…
