After being in IT for a decade it never ceases to amaze me how incompetent people are when it comes to tech.
At my first gig in NYC I worked at a smaller financial firm (about 100 people) and every mid-level and above employee was given a work phone. One time I got a ticket that said “my smartphone is being really slow, can someone please take a look?”. I went up there and it was a guy in his 40s (I was like 30), suit and tie, I think he was a Junior VP or something like that. He gave me his Galaxy S5 and I looked at the RAM usage and it was all taken up by Chrome. I opened up Chrome and he had 99+ tabs open, I told him that was the reason and he said “Oh… I thought those automatically closed when I exited (he meant switched apps, not killing the process)…”, I told him they didn’t and started swiping them away, after the first few it was about 90 tabs of (teen) porn 🤣. I had to stand there in front of him, straight faced for a good few minutes cleaning up his porn. Afterwards I said “it should be better now, just remember to close your tabs when you’re finished with them.” and left. Once I got in the elevator I nearly pissed myself laughing so hard.
I’m not gonna lie I do this too. Not leaving porn tabs open, but not closing apps/tabs. Android should automatically clean these up afaik.
NOOOOOOOOOO! DO NOT. EVEN. SUGGEST. THAT.
I’ve got hundreds of tabs opened, if Android cleaned them automatically it’d be like burning my own Library of Alexandria.
