I feel like many programmers (or their management) have grown ignorant to resource limitations over the past decade or so.
Obviously there is good examples like many linux distros running well on 4GB RAM and the like, but when it comes to windows, websites and proprietary programs, they gobble up insane amounts of RAM to provide almost the same functionality as in 2010.









I used to run SuSE and i appreciate their 100% open-source philosophy. But when i can’t run videos on websites because the codec isn’t open source, it is not suitable as a daily driver.
