and sometimes i have to force close librewolf (fork of firefox though it happens the same with all browsers) and reopen it
its just very annoying and sometimes it lags so much i have to force restart
its annoying me, please help
Hi @ErrorOliver, welcome to the forum.
People who may be able to help you will need some more information about your system.
Please have a look at this article[1].
Also: did it work well before?
What has been changed since?
Yes, it did work before but I don’t know what changed since.

Running out of memory? Seems that there is no swap / zram configured. Especially web browsers can easily hog memory with enough tabs open. Did you have swap/zram previously configured?
you have :

@ErrorOliver there is a lot of discussion about activating swap on systems with a lot of memory, but there is this article
that made me decide to activate a swap-file.
I wouldnt classify 8GB as system with ‘a lot of memory’.
Having swap file or zram should show up in dmesg and journalctl (tested on my system). On logs provided by @ErrorOliver doesn’t have notion of zram/swap/swapfile activating and thus I assume only available memory is the 8GB provided which logs shows is already used up to 93.8% making OOM situation very likely.
Currently the recommended amount of ram for Minecraft is 8G, which is what you have. That doesn’t make 8G a lot of memory.
If you care about running modern games you should have at least 16G of ram in your system, most people I know that game all have 32G of ram in their system.
I’d also assume that the 8GB recommendation in Minecraft includes an assumption of having some swap/pagefile in the system. For example Windows uses Pagefile by default, and to my knowledge, most Linux distributions configure at least either swapfile or zram during installation.
Any modern web browser can alone use more than 8GB of memory these days with enough tabs open, or just a couple youtube etc. videos loaded in the background. For example, at the moment I have only Firefox open with ~15 tabs in Gnome DE, current mem use is 11.8Gb of which 9.7GB is for firefox alone, which would easily OOM 8GB system without any kind of swap. My 8GB laptop routinely has swap file usage in normal use (non gaming).
True. But I make do with only 4 Gb. Adding a swap file did indeed, for my use case, improve my setup.
Still, people may not be able to afford the amount of memory they would like to have.
The bottom line seems to be: activating swap is recommended irrespective of the amount of memory in the system.
@ErrorOliver the suggestion is to first have a look at using swap and see if things get better.
I followed this https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/swap method to add a swap file to my system.
Hoping to help.
Ok so, I’m stuck on this step:
Finally, edit the fstab configuration to add an entry for the swap file
I have opened the fstab on /etc/fstab but I don’t know where to put it
I put the line at the bottom of the fstab:
/swapfile none swap defaults 0 0
Works for me. Not sure if you have to put this line at a particular place.
Had a think: I suspect you do need to put the the swap file line after the line where the device that the swapfile is located on is being mounted.
https://discovery.endeavouros.com/storage-and-partitions/adding-swap-after-installation/2021/03/
Edit: Just put that to the end of the fstab.
Sorry for taking so long to respond. In the end, I just decided to reinstall EndeavourOS since my installation broke somehow. Thanks for trying your best to help, community
