I was trying to mention things that weren't just web browsers. Since it seemed the comment was about programs that use more ram than they seemingly need to.

Edit: There's like photogrammetry and stuff that happens on phones now!

And games!

games are probably a better argument honestly, but even at that point, it's not a really good experience. Unless you buy a gaming phone, which i guess is an option. Regardless the mobile gaming market is actually vile.

i suppose photo editing would be one? Maybe? I'm not sure how advanced photo editing would be on mobile, it's not like you're going to load up the entirety of GIMP or something.

As for photogrammetry, i'm not sure that would consume very much ram. It could, i honestly don't think it would be that significant.
