Yes, Windows 11 uses a lot of memory now. The point is that they're working on making it use less.

Oh it may well be true, doesn't mean they will succeed.
Their first step should have been to disable all the data collection and „AI“. If they were actually serious about saving resources.
Yes I understood that but I am arguing against the implication they made when they chose this specific language and connotation, so I am insinuating that it will still use more than every other OS unless they gutt all the adware and spyware.
