Hello,
I am contemplating if I should add a swap file, as I don’t have much knowledge on it, when installing endeavouros I opted out for the swap partition, and went with no swap for the first time. The issue is that lately my ram is getting too high while i have chrome, vscode and docker running that sometimes the apps close by themselves because of full memory to liberate space, and sometimes even forced to log out.
Also I would like to ask another thing I read, should I left 10% un-formatted space at the end of the drive, I read it from First Laptop Installation - #3 by ricklinux, but its from Dec 2020. Though I also read that in modern ssd is not necessary.
