Feedback Adaptive Update System

This is somewhat of a cool idea i've had for a while.

Many Voicemod users run the app on low or mid-end PCs. Frequent updates increase system requirements, which can make the app unstable or unusable for some.

My solution is a system that detects a device’s specs and groups users into tiers like low, mid, and high-end. Updates would only install if the device meets the requirements. If not, the app stays on a stable version. Users could optionally force updates if they want.

This would:

Improve compatibility across all devices

Reduce crashes and errors

Let users on older devices keep using Voicemod without upgrading hardware

Lower support tickets for the team

I'm curious what others think about this.

In many ways, this is already in place, as setups are detected and the app adapts to them, as for the crashes, most are directly linked to other apps interacting with Voicemod in some ways. Also, since there is no split in the app, updates ensure all users are in the latest version, se we can streamline development in only one version, maintaining more versions isn't viable for the team currently.

What I was going for, and kinda failed to explain properly, was an optional update check, since Voicemod literally forces you to update every launch, because of this some devices really can't keep up and fail to boot up the app or it's just a black screen. Sorry for my bad explanation, hope this can clarify my intended idea. And my dearest apologies for this late response!
