I was forced to switch to Chrome-based browser - there's simply no other
browsers exist nowadays, if you don't take IE into account.
I use VS Code daily.
I need 2 GB RAM upfront just to start either, starting both is 4 GB already,
and it quickly grows into 10-15 GB range as you work.
Anything but a stationary system simply unsuitable to use them.

In the contrast, I can use Dia on my netbook with just 2 GB RAM comfortable.
And not just starting and closing. The diagram I'm working with contains 1336
objects.
All it takes is… about 70 MB RAM. Two orders of magnitude less than anything
you can name.
