I've actively started to use outlook and teams through chrome to free up some of my ram, easily saves 3-4gb. It's gotten ridiculous how much ram basic tools are using, leaving nothing for doing actually real work

People get on me all the time about not installing programs on my computer. I run everything in the browser, if I can. Partly so I can kill it properly without it misbehaving, and partly because I don't trust their software at all. Zoom, Slack, Gmail, etc-- if I can run it in the browser, then that's the only way I'll run it.

ive found the web versions use a similar amount of memory and have fewer features

my issue is that my company won't issue laptops with more than 16 gbs of ram

guess i'm not virtualizing anything...
