I wish I saw this a year ago. Global stores are a sh*t show. iPhones can forgive excessive rendering, Android not so much. Becomes janky as hell.

The UK can’t run out of pounds any more than it can run out of inches or centimetres. In this response to Gary Stevenson, I explain why money is a public good, created by the state, and why it’s wrong to claim the government is broke.

Some tips:
- Fix unnecessary rerenders (rerenders can create lots of short lived memory objects)
- Rely on native primitives
- Watch out for those memory leaks
Android devices don’t have as much juice as the average iPhone. Furthermore Android’s design of memory management requires you don’t spin up too much short lived objects in memory. Garbage collection events are expensive, used to be crazy expensive on older android versions.
Folks talk about poor RN performance on Android. I can sympathize with that but sometimes the poor performance I see in codebases stem from naivety.
Thank you
What's the best way to debug React Native apps these days?
Legend List 1.0 beta is ready!
It started as a performance experiment, but it ended up solving a lot of the major issues with lists in React Native. 🎉
✨ Better perf than FlashList
✨ maintainContentVisiblePosition
✨ Bidirectional infinite lists
✨ Chat UI without inverting
Blessed is the React native developer that is naive, ships bugs, Sentry makes a fuss about it and developer swoops in like a hero to fix bug they made with much fanfare and confetti. Native dev looks on in bewilderment...that bug should not have existed.
Scrcpy
There's a match today???
Brief moments were BlueSky froze on the feed
I think this depends on the theme of your device.
I was searching hard for a bookmark feature
you know, if there was an #atproto equivalent of the new fediverse:creator og meta tag [1], then author's bsky accounts could be directly linked as part of the link card

Good morning, Bluesky. Today’s #GoodMorningNews: a genetic therapy is being trialled in the UK as a potential cure for lupus. It’s already led to remission for German patients in an earlier trial. amp.theguardian.com/science/2024...
Reposting for the pleasure of Bluesky residents
Unfortunately no… ☹️. Hopefully I can reach out to you here
Absolutely!!! I would check it out on Android also because RN on Android requires a great deal of effort to get right.
Yes please
I would have loved to stick around for a chat but I had a train to catch.
@jayz.us I am going to try out legend state. Really looking forward to a different experience from selector based state management libs. Thanks for showing up at the meetup.
What’s a pragmatic approach to convincing a team of web devs to abandon redux sagas for managing side effects. There’s a 4 year old codebase at stake and a prevailing philosophy of if it ain’t broke don’t fix it.
<Animated.ScrollView // @ts-ignore Something's up with the types here ref={scrollViewRef} pinchGestureEnabled showsHorizontalScrollIndicator={false} showsVerticalScrollIndicator={false} maximumZoomScale={maxZoomScale} onScroll={scrollHandler} bounces={scaled} contentContainerStyle={{ justifyContent: 'center', alignItems: 'center', backgroundColor: 'green', }} style={{ backgroundColor: 'red', }}> <View style={{ width: SCREEN.width, height: 300, }} /> </Animated.ScrollView>
long shot, but do any React Native experts know if there’s a way to get the green thing (contentContainerStyle) to show up in the middle vertically but WITHOUT extending its height?
Why Bluesky? Because THREADS is an anagram for HATREDS

Very much enjoying starter packs. Nice work, Team Bluesky.
On business cards. Ha, brilliant! 💳

Kinda like the awkward LinkedIn app scan thingy yet waaaaay cooooler.
