Notes
  1. Membership unknown due to conflicting reliable sources as of July 2018
gollark: Not deleting the top entries you've scrolled past, or something.
gollark: Lazy loading doesn't stop it from using lots of RAM. They just programmed it poorly, I guess.
gollark: I run Discord in the browser, personally, to mildly reduce RAM use and data gathering, and use old reddit because new reddit is just terrible.
gollark: I've not heard of that, but that's !!FUN!! too!
gollark: It's really irritating that the web has reached a state where we only have something like two different browser engines, they contain horrendously complex and vast amounts of code which new projects probably can't replicate, websites regularly use hundreds of megabytes of RAM for some reason, and a bunch of "desktop" apps effectively just ship an entire copy of Chrome to run in.
