The Ancient Art of Optimization™
After doing some research and comparison with other messenger apps, both private and not, we wanted to share with you all our findings. On average as it varies across different operating systems, Vector's app size is ~25 MB. To compare it with the other apps out there, we have used one "Vector Floppy Disk" for you to visualize how many "Vectors per x app". For starters, you can see there are about 17 Vectors per Signal (Signal is 17x the size of Vector). Let the numbers speak for themselves. This is reasonable and likely to change and grow with time, but many apps get stuck in this data drain and fail to optimize their codebase, which negatively affects the end user. Vector is intended and designed for every OS and platform out there, to reach the hands of everyone on the planet. If we can't get it working how we want the first time, keep optimizing...
