It depends what you are developing. If I am debugging, I often have to spin up Unity, plus a crapton on 3D models and assets, plus the server which is a bunch of VMs, plus IntelliJ. This is in addition to Chrome and slack. It's okay on 16GB but I occasionally get issues and a couple of years from now this will likely get worse.
