Chrome?

  I don’t do any tab-hoarding in Chrome (that’s the job of Safari on my machine), but I’m pretty sure that it will suspend tabs long before you run out of RAM. 8 GB is still plenty for web browsing.

    I started surfing the net in the 90s with 8MB. :D

      BRB gonna fire up Netscape on my brand new MacBook Air

        Netscape?! That's for the kids, we used NCSA Mosaic and liked it. I suspect lynx is still around in some form.

          Lynx is definitely still around. Useful for a quick "can I actually get to this site" sanity checks on servers.

          Lynx is bloatware. Just use telnet.
          • snazz 6y ago
            Unless it’s HTTPS-only, which is most sites these days.... (I’m definitely not arguing that that’s a bad thing; it just makes Telnet more annoying)

    Yeah, but I need both browser + IntelliJ. I run out of 8 GB pretty damn quickly.
