How does Lynx improve performance over other cross-platform frameworks?
Lynx employs a dual-threaded architecture that separates user code and framework code into distinct runtimes. The main thread is powered by Primjs (built on QuickJS), handling synchronous UI tasks like event handling, while user code runs on a separate thread. This ensures inefficient code doesn't block the main thread or degrade performance. This architecture enables instant first frame rendering with no blank screens for users. Unlike React Native's single-threaded JavaScript bridge, Lynx's approach prevents bottlenecks between JavaScript and native code. Additionally, Lynx supports native CSS features including transitions, animations, and variables, making it more intuitive for web developers while delivering smoother UIs and faster launch times.

What does social media show us versus reality?
Social media only shows us curated highlight reels of positives - brief 15-20 second moments of happiness through a rose-colored lens designed to make us watch, click, and admire. The remaining 23+ hours of daily reality with struggles, arguments, and imperfections are deliberately hidden. People showcase only what makes them appear perfect to attract viewers, leading us to falsely believe these idealized snippets represent their entire lives. This disconnect between social media portrayal and actual reality creates harmful comparisons where we question why our lives don't match what we're seeing, when in fact we're subscribing to a constructed lie.
