So why not go back to some old version of it? I don't think "memory consumption" is necessarily a good indicator, because sometimes using more memory is a sign of good optimization.
Also how is the memory consumption if you turn off all modern features?

Because the old version doesn't work due to DRM/it depending on a remote API version that's no longer available/it's just flat out unavailable/etc... > Also how is the memory consumption if you turn off all modern features? It's cute you think you /can/ turn off the modern features in a lot of today's garbage.
- notanzaiiswear 5y agoPretty sure you can turn off a lot of things in modern browsers, if you find the hidden settings menu. For sure you can turn off things like JavaScript or video.

- AlbertCory 5y agoI hadn't used Word/Excel for many years, and was f*cking appalled to discover that they have TWO levels of menus now. This comes from generations of PMs and engineers who need to add features to justify their existence. No one has any incentive to keep things simple.
