The Slack desktop client implements multiple teams basically the same way Chrome implements multiple tabs. And we all know the rule of thumb: you can create one Chrome tab per gigabyte of memory.

- icedchai 9y agoIt's remarkable how bloated browsers have become. I remember having multiple Netscape 3.x windows open back in the mid-90s, on a 486 with 32 megabytes of RAM.
- enraged_camel 9y agoSure, but browsers today are incredibly complex runtime environments that support all kinds of apps. That inevitably results in bloat.
- icedchai 9y agoAgreed, but not orders of magnitude more complex. It's not just browsers... all software suffers from this bloat.
