I got 32 on my desktop so I'm fine there, but my laptop explodes if I try to run the same amount of stuff with 8GB ram

Easy solution, get a laptop with 32 GB RAM/s

Seriously though, the problem is either on both or on neither. It's an additional expense on the customer though, like everything else nowadays. I personally ended up getting a super powered laptop/tablet and relying on it for all my computing needs because laptops are good enough for most use cases nowadays and desktops are limited to specific use cases.

Thinking about it though, the reason it's only limited tasks needing more power might be because everything else is electron.

Have you considered downloading more ram?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, but RAM is a bit costly, so saving up for it.
