I flummoxed to read a report about how much memory Microsoft’s Weather app uses on Windows 11 – more than 1GB just to render what is, ostensibly, a fancy table of stats.

While not everyone on Windows 11 will see memory usage as high as the 1.1GB figure in the report by Windows Latest, on my low-power Chuwi laptop it was north of 900MB on Windows […]You're reading Windows 11’s Weather app uses 1GB RAM, but are Linux apps better?, a blog post from OMG!
