@natecull Have you checked out [Lua Carousel](https://forum.malleable.systems/t/freewheeling-apps/52/43) on Android?

Pros:

- Someone already made the side loading app. And it can do graphics.
- It’s cross platform. Kind of a pain on iOS but easy to get running on Android.
- Anti Megacorp
- Lua is more parsimonious that npm.

Cons:

- I’ve never been able to get text files out of the app on Android. (This part works better on iOS.) I don’t know if it’s missing some Android API. I use copy-paste to my email for backups.
