apple may make software that doesnt require more than 8GB of memory, but a lot of developers that arent apple dont take that into consideration.

"memory is infinite" is a modern day slogan when building simple cross-platform apps because there is so much to use on normal computers.

there is even a joke for electron apps in this regard: how much memory does an electron app need to run? more.
