I use KoboldAI horde with TavrenAI and some AIs take a long time to get to me from the queue. I would like to use other apps while waiting but the site reloads when i enter the browser, which is native alpha and fennec

I believe Android very aggressively swaps things out of memory, and just keeps a very memory efficient app bookmark to reload the app in the position you were at.

If you want to insure an app works in the background you might want to split screen, keeping your browser open while you do something else

Ya. I wish my rom had freeform windows

It probably does! Android split screen has been built into AOSP for a very long time.

Turns out it does! Is there a way to autolaunch apps in freeform
