Please describe the problem you’ve encountered in detail:

  • Description: I recently upgraded to FydeOS 23 on my Surface Pro 6 with the FydeOS for You image. Nothing works in fyDroid.
    Tailscale crashes on launch, YouTube crashes after like 5 seconds, scrolling is choppy unlike ARCVM, and the whole system feels generally slower and less responsive.
    I had no problems whatsoever on FydeOS 22 with ARCVM, so I am attributing this problem to fyDroid, which seems heavier and less compatible.
