At some point software needs to stop catering for miniscule percentages of users.
- dtech 7y agoFeature phones are a large thing in developing nations, but then again I don't know if those are running Chrome or watching videos.
- Faark 7y agoI'm currently on 4gb (ram sticks slowly died one after another, hope to replace the pc soon) and yes, Firefox taking up an entire gb is pushing it. Windows takes about 2gb for itself, leaving annoyingly little for other tasks. ~15% of steam users have 4gb or less [0]. And I doubt gaming PCs drag the total average down. So yeah, only a "miniscule percentages of users" caring about ram usage of browsers doesn't seem based in reality we still live in.
