Just came to say that official client (all its processes combined) uses 1.1Gb of RAM on my macbook air, while this, playing the same track from the same playlist and nothing else, gets only up to 280Mb


That's an improvement for sure, but 280MB also seems like a lot.


Because the official client is an electron app.


I came here to say the opposite. Running on MacOS 15.7 the original Client uses ~200mb and Fastpotify uses ~500mb playing the same song while being substantially slower when navigating music.

EDIT: I forgot about the Spotify Helper processes - taken into account the original spotify needs ~1GB. However it's still a lot faster than Fastpotify

I mean, most of us already use either IDE or a text editor for work, so why not just type non-work markdown files in them? Be it VS Code or JetBrains.

Thread hijacking but, I wonder more why Apple keeps the built-in TextEdit at its crappy state, it would be a fantastic text editor if fixed


Exactly - I have been using VS code for work as well as non-work markdown for more than 5 years now. Never had to look for any other note-taking tool.
