Al Masjid Al Aqsa, 24 Sep 2023What is the lightest recent version of Android?
By recent ... moreAll versions are almost same it depends on manufacturer about how many features they cram on top. Newer Android versions have introduced features like better privacy and permission management, and modular updates. These have little effect on performance. And even performance improvement over previous versions, support for newer APIs.
On low ram devices (4-6GB): MIUI you'll have less apps stay in ram compared to motorola, vivo or other brand that have a near stock implementation.
The burden comes from later versions of google play services and newer version of apps that require more ram, processing and storage than they used to 5 years ago so Android version is irrelevant as if u want to keep using ur old device you'll have to update these and it'll slowdown those so custom rom with nano, pico version of Google play would have some chance to run a bit better compared to those roms with full implementation of these.

But then we also have a huge number of consumers always chasing the newest stuff so manufacturers get away with it.

All manufacturers just recycle or copy others that's just how it goes since 10 years ago, trying to catch up the trend when it's needed, tbh I forgot lock screen widgets even existed dang that's a long time ago, obviously we're used to not having it but getting it back now is good news, instead of blaming them to be lack of creativity (true but logically to get something new every year or at least a functional update need some brainstorming) just be glad they are back

Oh the irony. Google copying a feature from a copy of their own feature from a decade ago.
Either way I'm glad this feature finally returns, but man the irony...

Of course they will return, after Apple introduced them. Just like Home Screen Widgets and live wallpapers. Google thinks „eh, we don’t need this stuff“ then Apple releases their version and Google says „ok we actually do need this stuff again now but the way Apple did it“

Google has the attention span of a five year old on crakk. "Let's do this! Seems important! What were we doing? Oh well, let's do this other thing! Seems important!"...
It would be hilarious if it wasn't for the fact that they keep making a mess of everything.

"revolutionary". Or maybe they will say "aPpLe iMpLeMEnTeD iT bEtTer"
For haters, yes, it's a pain for them and as what the old words say. If you can't fight them, join them. Apple did revolutionary the smartphone and implemented a lot of feature batter, either you hate it or love it. Stop being sour and bitter. What're you saying now is reflecting yourself to people around you.
P/S: Apple haters comedy is pure comedy 🤡
