Or you could focus that energy on cleaning out your browser tabs/closing other applications every once in a while and you’d have a better effect :P
This laptop has 32GB of RAM and regularly runs dry due to running both Chrome and Firefox, VScode, Zoom and whatever other random crap. And tuning systemd-oomd to walk the line between “Using 16GB of RAM will instantly kill the entire desktop shell” and “Once you’ve used all 32GB the kernel OOM killer will free something up in 3-5 business decades” is painful too.
True, but if you are starved for ram, then minimizing the OS use gives more for the rest of the bloated apps you cannot control.

So chrome, Firefox, chrome, chrome, and probably more chrome
I actually didn’t know Zoom was Electron, but yes.
