Do research yourself, don't watch reels, find a hobby sport, touch grass

It's plenty of RAM, I think it's not your machine's fault, it's just that Dia afaik uses chromium and chromium likes ram, I used to use arc, and I was not willing to switch to Dia looking at what The Browser Company did to arc

If you are tied to apple ecosystem, then obviously Safari is going to be the fastest one since its apple specific so they can optimize it for their hardware, though I think with as powerful computers as we have right now, you can run almost any browser without performance issues

Have you tried any other firefox based browsers, like Zen, or LibreWolf?

The bubble goes on

Ask HN: What browser do you use?

At work, I use Chrome mainly because I work on an observability and analytics product, so it makes sense to use the browser that sends everything, everywhere by default.

Outside of work, though, I use Zen and have also been thinking about switching to Mullvad. Privacy-focused browsers, or even simple extensions like Mullvad, Zen, Brave, LibreWolf, or Firefox with uBlock Origin are easy to install and use these days, so I'm wondering why so many people still stick with Chrome, Safari, or Edge.

What keeps you using your current browser?

The best one is when you visit your grandmother and you have it in bread (bigos w chlebku) the same way as Żurek w chlebku

Kinda both, there are so many projects that I care about and I could contribute too, but the hardest part is just getting your first few contributions, or finding a project where community is now that big enough, so you can reach out to people directly, instead of just being a 'contributor'

That's crazy, finally some use of ASML chips in Europe, instead of just exporting them to whole world

really nice idea, in past I have had problems to find people who would like to contribute to my project, or even now its hard to find projects that resonate with me, since github search got so worse

Honestly, really cool, I don't know why but I feel peace just watching these shape intersect, how can this be used as eyes training exercise though?
