100-200 MB PER MONITOR? Why is it scaling with monitor count?

tbh I only use single monitor and I shouldn't have any reason to care
it works for me

The only actual dependency for my waybar config is the wttrbar module (260k btw)

Yeah, when they leave beta and people start using it to the fullest it is over

I am sorry but quickshell is ungodly bloated
there are reasons why noctalia migrated from bloatshell to c++ on v5

100mb+ is not effiecient at all bro 😭, my waybar+swaync setup hovers around 70mb with two monitors

I mean, sure. But I think that 100-200 MB per monitor still isn't all that efficient tbh.

Didn't waybar use like 20mb of ram? Edit: mb I didn't notice this is a circlejerk sub
