Nowadays Google Chrome, VS Code, Slack and Notion are now eating 90% of the memory of my 16GB MacBook Pro. One reason to switch to a new laptop would be to upgrade to 32GB. This won't be possible for now with M1 macs.
What do you guys think? Is 16GB reasonable today for average Software Engineering work?
This seemed to me like a nice question for HN (Mac and Electron apps ranting welcome)
