godot-demo-projects is exactly the thing that I mentioned above. Demo of one specific engine function, as opposed to a collection of game mechanics.
I am aware of awesome-godot, and it is a good resource. But I have not checked it out recently. Apparently the section that you linked to has links to Godot <=3.2. Maybe we could make some PRs with 4.x links as well.

I would argue that it's not a binary option. Whether phone can or can not perform tasks that laptop can. It's a set / range of different use-cases.
And as you said, even the glassy rectangle form factor took many use-cases from laptop. If the question is "can phone do all the tasks that laptop can do", the answer will always be "no". But if you analyse the use-cases and sort them by percentage, then I would argue that things like "browsing the web", "editing documents", "chatting with people" etc. will be the most predominant. And those are the tasks that current phones either can do or at least could do, if the appropriate software was developed for it. Yes, playing modern video games, photo editing, video editing, rendering graphics, programming and other advanced tasks would not be done easily on phone's limited hardware, and that is why PCs, either laptops or desktops, will remain the device of choice for productivity. But as my initial point stands, the percentage of those use-cases is far outweighed by casual use-cases.

I am aware of those two, but those are just for file storage. I was thinking something more general. Like having a Virtual Private Server, that people can extend with their donated resources. VPS can be used for more than just file storage. It can do processing as well.

You could have system monitor open in order to check what happens with Firefox process when the browser freezes.
See if you can find a reproducible way to freeze the browser. That way you can start to narrow down the cause of the issue. You could stay on the older version of Firefox and only update once the next version is released.
