The major issue is that apps & tabs are evicted unexpectedly. Any time you content switch, the app has a chance to be killed.
Of course there are mobile terminals , tmux and other tools to mitigate it, but it's still a major pain.
If I'm going ultra-light, I carry a raspberry pi + bt keyboard . Otherwise a laptop is preferred.
- transpute 2y agoThis can be mitigated with screen/tmux and an ssh client with reattach on connect.
- tonymet 2y agothat's what I meant with tmux & mobile shell/mosh but it's still unpleasant. The reconnect latency is a productivity killer. It turns out that keeping your app state in ram is very useful.
