There’s a reason why modern browsers have multiple processes. Each tab and extension is sandboxed for stability and security reasons. There are also memory mechanisms that free up memory when other non-browser processes need it, but I am not an operating system expert/engineer so I am unable to explain it in details. Google Gemini it up.
Also Firefox tends to use similar amount of RAM as Chrome, and it’s silly that it’s only Chrome is being making fun of for that.
Of course it doesn’t meant that modern web is fucking shit, but you cannot only blame modern browsers for that. It’s just mostly bloated JavaScript bullshit.
By the way, I wish there was some alternative to modern Web which works like basic HTML + CSS, maybe even without using two languages for two different things (website content and stylesheet). If we had this, we could even have lightweight Markdown/WikiText/You_name_it viewer if exported to that format on the fly (by an app not JS).
