Getting a 64 gb 2021 MacBook Pro really changed the game for me.
The computer now works on my rhythm, not its own. No need to suspend tabs or do any other shenanigans. Sometimes it's just not productive to stop everything to clean up tabs and/or open apps. Some rabbit holes are actually quite worth digging into, and they are often RAM-hungry!
Going from 16 to 64 gb on my personal laptop meant I got to choose when to deal with my own mess... on my own terms. I much prefer to do this cleaning exercise on weekends, versus "whenever the computer starts choking up".
So yeah, highly agree with the author here. Wish Apple laptops were RAM upgradable, but I doubt that will be coming anytime soon.
