In fact, many/most computers these days have 8GB of RAM.
And in any case, less RAM usage usually means less cache thrashing which in turn means acceptable performance.
Yes, it actually does, because it redefines wasteful, and the availability of many-GB computers means a lot of people do have access.
This isn't 2008, we don't need to care about 150MB like we used to.
> many-GB computers
Most computers nowadays have 4/8GB, it's not that much memory compared to how much Electron uses.
> because it redefines wasteful
how do people write shit like this and not realize how blatantly user-hostile they are??
Because it's not user hostile at all?

If you have legitimate reason for using 150MB. Developer laziness is NOT a legitimate reason.
Okay? Having a lot of memory does not mean a program should be wasteful, nor does it mean everyone has that.
