The Element Matrix client on Android uses a whopping 860MB of RAM on my device, and I'm only in a handful of channels.

I really like this client, but that's an immediate uninstall 😟

@fribbledom Wo cares about RAM consumption on a mobile device? These things have more RAM then useful anyway.

Uhm, I have 4GB of RAM in my device and more than 3GB of it are used by apps currently. See how this is an actual problem?

@fribbledom Ok, if you use a device that old. I think even my next to last device had 8 GiB which I nver used up.

@exception

Are you sure you're not mixing up RAM and storage here? Even the latest Samsung devices come with either 4 or 8GB of RAM. As far as I'm aware only the high-end flagship products feature 12GB currently.

@fribbledom @exception Some older devices had more RAM e.g. Xiaomi MI 10 Ultra had up to 16 Gb, newer model, MI 11 Ultra only has up to 12 Gb. Looks like no one needed THAT much on a phone 🤷
