RAM does not free memory even after closing relevant app
Post Body

Hello, I'm running Nix 23.05 and I noticed this interesting phenomenon hoping someone knows an easy fix.
I've been noticing more and more that RAM gets clogged up easily on my laptop the more I leave it on.
Eventually, I realized that if I start at 10% ram, then simply open 10 browser windows and close them, RAM stays stuck at 41%. Continue stacking up more stuff, and then it makes sense why I'm always around 95%.
It's almost as if it doesn't free any memory until I log out and reboot then start from scratch.

I could have 80 tabs. Close 70, ram still sits at 90%, but if I boot up and open 10 tabs, it sits much less.
Any insight or easy fix? Thank you!!
