From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I usually use Lemmy at my smartphone with 4G that was released 3 years ago, I'm happy with it, and I don't need other one more new and expensive.
The area of 4G is very congested, then the connection is slower in peak hours.
Only rich people has last medium and high end smartphone with 5G, and live in area with that coverage.
I live now in downtown, and just got slow fiber connection 3 months ago, there are a lot buildings with only ADSL in this area, and it's the capital.
Maybe you are lucky, with good connection.
Is not so hard to optimize the image for everyone in the world, and maybe put a link to original big image of you want.
There's a lot of ways to optimize, like changing resolution, reduce colors, clean image. And compression, using webp lossy 95% you got a very small file that looks very close to the original, usually got less than 1MB.
Today's web is very bloated for no reason, and very slow in old computers. Browsers are the main RAM eaters.
