    They just implemented a systemd feature, systemd-oomd. To be honest, it can cause issues in some edge cases, but it works pretty well in any distro (that uses systemd).

      There’s also earlyoom that’s systemd-independent. If you have a source about the edge cases produced by such software i’m curious
