Chrome is the container housing that website the developer decided to include 15 libraries at 50 meg each because he couldn’t be bothered to optimize shit and that’s just “standard” now. Oh and tack on the 15 scripts running to mine your data and load unfiltered ads into your userspace.
Get more ram pleb, it’s cheap… has been the excuse for ages. Makes it easy to ignore the problem.
