Any tips or tools to minimise the cpu/ram consumption? (lemmy.ml)

I’m not sure what’s causing such a high RAM consumption. Even without running any apps, it shows as using 50% of the RAM. I’m looking for an app that can limit the overall usage of apps that are consuming too many resources.

There’s one called App Tamer but it’s more for CPU. Free trial though. Also core services like Siri, indexing, photos, etc. burn a ton of resources generally speaking.
