It's something I've always done. I pick an app. ie: Firefox but then at some point I'll go to the alternative to see if it has something I might have missed. This way I can evaluate it myself rather than rely on someone else's bias. I've been using Edge for about 3 months now, and it really isn't that bad. I'm going to try Brave next.

As I mentioned earlier, I use the free version of Claude to help me with automations and dashboards in Home Assistant. It really is an incredible tool.

I don't know what that means. How much TEAM my PC has? You saw what Edge was using. This PC, which basically is a boy doing a man's job, has 32GB of RAM. It runs all of my 'ARR' apps.

I just don't see the issue with Whatsapp. It runs perfectly fine of my crappy HP I7 7700 PC.

    Ohhh my bad, stupid swipe text corrected ram to team I guess...

    Edge isn't a bad browser as far as functionality goes, but far from secure. But it's gotta I discovered vertical tabs while at work, so I added that extension in Firefox and now that's native too.

    Oh. OK well that's good! Idk, maybe the tester left the PC running really long or just ran a bunch of convos to rack up RAM usage for the article

    When I reported my Whatsapp was using 320MB it had been running for a week. The writer is just not that good when it comes to analyzing technology. He wants to trigger outrage, which it seems he has done.
