I don't like smartphones. I use a dumbphone.

But this is a wonderful initiative.

I haven't noticed any slowdown yet

?? Confused with Windows?

No? People complain that mid to low range chips on android become unable to do everyday tasks overtime. My friend has a Samsung midranger that started out smooth, but now he complains about it and after handling it I see what he means, animations are choppy and app loading is slow, sadly making it no longer useable for him.

Android not liking slow devices anymore is something i know from my Kobo Leaf. But it getting slower? Is this limited to "Android" with Google Play Store devices?

About the animations, there's a setting in developer options to shorten or entirely disable them.
