Google is trying to make me feel like a piece of shit for having a mid 2010s laptop

In windows I find that chrome is constantly talking to google servers and telling me:<br><br>"You're using a low-end device"<br><br>"You're using a low-end device. Please disable hardware acceleration"<br><br>Essentially it's trying to force me to disable hardware acceleration, which makes my web pages load slower, and disables things like youtube's ability to reduce its quality<br><br>If I disable hardware acceleration, then the chrome browser is running slowly. It's like "Shit! You're using a low-end device! I'd best make sure that each chrome process is pulling 50% CPU so it runs slower, but hey, what do I care? It's not like I'm a hypocritical trillion dollar company that had a purpose of organizing the worlds information! Making you feel like shit is way more important"<br><br>And just yesterday, I was using the google maps website, just looking at a map to get walking directions, when chrome's ability to run javascript collapsed. I looked at my resource monitor and saw that one chrome process was using 3GB of ram! I said "fuck it" opened a task manager, and killed the high cpu process. Suddenly I am bombarded with 4 windows that all say:<br><br>"The google maps website has crashed"<br><br>And then it makes me reload the page to see the map. But when I reload the page, chrome decides to close all of my tabs because I'm using a "low-end device" and I should "disable hardware acceleration"<br><br>If I kill a process in task manager, it shouldn't throw an error. I am a user that knows what I'm doing, I know that process was using too much memory and I'm killing it to free up memory to run youtube ads. Chrome shouldn't have a mechanism to just throw an error saying "hey, you killed that process. Here is a window saying THE GOOGLE MAPS WEBSITE HAS CRASHED" Every time I try to do something on the google maps website, I just get bombarded with a window that says "THE GOOGLE MAPS WEBSITE HAS CRASHED"<br><br>I just feel like a piece of shit for owning a 2011 laptop, as google is trying to tell me that I need to buy a new laptop every 5 years, because otherwise I am a low-end device user. <br><br>The chrome browser is running slowly because it is a memory hog. Every tab has its own process, and every extension has its own process. I have 26 chrome processes running on my computer right now and I only have 2 chrome windows open. Its absurd.
