Should I not be using chrome? What browser is best/most lightweight? Thanks in advance.
Weird. I only have a few tabs open. I do have quite a few extensions running, could that be the problem? Thanks for the reply.
i have 5 tabs open and it's using 15 processes to do it, so maybe? I also have a few extensions running
Most modern browsers will spawn a lot of processes- at least one per tab. It doesn't matter imo. If you have 8-16 GBs of RAM, you probably won't notice any performance hit from this.
Chrome is not a light browser and unfortunately by following their standards, most websites are impossible to fully render without needing a non-light browser.
For what it's worth, Brave Browser is based on chrome but doesn't have as many active processes as chrome (cuts out some of the chrome bloat).
You need to get off Chrome.
Use Mozilla, I know they are chuds now but Its better than that absolute pile of unoptimized, resource hogging, data mining garbage that is Chrome.
