My laptops since about 2018 have all had 32G of memory. No combination of Lightroom, video streaming, Jetbrains IDEs, Slack, dozens of browser tabs, and recently generative graphics have ever caused detectible memory pressure.

I’m beginning to think that for the vast majority of people, 32G is enough memory, for the foreseeable future.

@timbray 32 is what I get too, but I also have a M2 Air with 16 and I push it hard and can’t tell the difference. It’s so crazy how computing power is just something I never think about any more.
