Feeding on An Old Device tips

This might just be me, but I was wondering if it’d be helpful for anyone else with a similar situation to mine!

I mostly do feeds on my phone because my computer is slow and can’t handle rapidly loading hundreds of webpages (it freezes and lags when I try even with the CTRL+W method) so I use my phone for that.
My phone though, is also old, so rapidly loading hundreds of webpages makes it heat up considerably.

One thing I have found to help, that may help others if anyone else with old devices has this issue, is turning my phone to Low Power mode, using the Reduce Color filter to change it to black and white, and using the Reduce White Point setting. I also lower the brightness to nearly 0. These are all things I was able to set up from my phone’s accessibility settings and set to shortcuts so I can quickly toggle them on and off as needed.

Using all three of these at once reduces the heat my phone generates from the strain of tons of whole webpage loads and allows me to feed hundreds of pets quickly with less issue! I hope this can help anyone else who may benefit from knowing!

Happy feeding!
