What's the point of anything? I have all these Electron apps on my devices which require Gigabytes of memory, Discord took a substantial amount of RAM my old laptop had. There's Android apps which are hundreds and hundreds of megabytes and all they do is call some REST APIs. Lemmy's protocol is terribly inefficient. And back in the day in the 90s an entire office suite fit on a bunch of floppy disks. And a 0.025 GHz CPU was all it took to run it... The internet was so much more efficient, you do your online banking, chat, read the news (without a lot of images) with 0.1% of today's internet connections.
