    Specially the moment you open the browser

    I’d be curious, did you profile if it’s for all pages or only some? I’d expect e.g. Facebook or Instagram to be more demanding than Lemmy or ProtonMail but to be honest I have no idea.

      Prefetching, prediction, media, infinite loading (gradually) or aggressive tracking can increase the usage.
      I’ve had a single jira page use 6GB on Firefox.

        At least with that 6gb you get the nice, streamlined, intuitive and responsive user experience that we all know and love Atlassian for.

      I had a Windows Phone with 2GB of memory before, even (old) Reddit was horrendous, let alone Proton Mail with all its JavaScript and images.
