i'm downloading it right now. the extensions i use (ublock, dashlane, tampermonkey, etc.) are all on firefox so i don't have stuff to worry about.
hyped because i'm so tired of having lots of tabs open or media pages open and having chrome flip the forget out
torin²:
does it still nuke my computer if i have firefox open period
Tudoreleu:
i'm already using it B)
Bisjac:
tbh, i WANT my computer to do lots of ram on things i have open. i mean how little memory do you guys have where its an issue?
16gb is wasted when my browser refuses to use more than 4g... thats the purpose of multi tasking and having hardware.
more ram does not make a computer faster. but not enough ram will make it slower. the old joke of browsers using tons of memory is just an issue for stuffty comps that still have 4g or less in them.
