I doubt ram is an issue as there is always at least 1.7GB free. This bug has been occuring or a long time. 3 years old reddit post about it

Can I fix it myself or should I wait for it to get patched? I dont know if this is appropriate place to post this, but I cant use github

    IIRC MIUI has for quite a while been tuned very aggressively in terms of memory management. That is to say, it’s probably not the browser but the underlying OS that is pruning processes to keep memory free when it really doesn’t need to.

      This ended up becoming a big issue with my OP7Pro where it would very aggressively kill apps causing them to constantly need to reload which would cost a lot of battery. My Pixel 7 does none of that and Firefox works great.
