6/8GB lmao. I have some tabs, spotify, discord, protonmail etc. open, casual stuff. This one is my old one running zorin, I can get it to about 1GB on idle which is fine since I have eye candy settings. I had mint on this earlier, but for some reason it drank memory like a sponge and I could barely have couple tabs open, so I dunno whatever zorin is doing but it's working way lighter
