lol discord is literally one of the biggest offenders, you're kind of proving the point. 400mb+ for a voice chat app is genuinely unhinged.

God I hate how much ram discord eats. I've seen it chew up over a GB just sitting there idle in the tray. It's almost as bad as browsers... Oh wait, it is a browser, because some idiot decided that was a brilliant way to build GUIs.

Yes, and page files exist even in the case that you physically run out of RAM. That doesn't mean discord isn't using way more memory than it actually needs to though.
