@slightlyoff@toot.cafe yup. Putting some series thought into memory is long overdue and I'm not just talking about browsers. I like Windows 11 but even 16 GB doesn't feel like enough when I'm working, which is crazy

@willrs@social.vivaldi.net It won't surprise you, but what we're finding with partner teams at MSFT (often folks building on WebView2) is that an extremely large proportion of their app's memory use is down to legacy JavaScript-based UI patterns that the web platform has made obsolete. Loading less JS, moving back to "use the platform" is both faster, but also less memory intensive along many axes.
