PC speed gains erased by modern software - Lemmy.world

Interesting take on comparability vs performance. I gotta imaging capturing user data and sending to a cloud collector is also a big culprit.

Massive amounts of telemetry data and nearly every app these days just being a web app just chews through your hardware. We use Teams at work and it’s just god awful. Hell, even steam is a problem. Even having your friends list open can cause a hot to your fps in some games.

Teams eats up my macos memory something awful and it’s just sitting there… no one saying anything.

wtf I hate it

When I login to my work laptop in the morning, before even doing anything, Teams is the app using the most resources - typically 300MB-400MB, while doing nothing.
