Yep. I can see that my solution is probably to ditch Chrome and use Edge instead, despite most of my cloud stuff being google and android. The problem that manifested which I was trying to solve was that Chrome was constantly hanging (infuriating). I discovered that when I killed Edge from running in the background this went away. Just not enough resources for both. So if I cannot stop Edge from starting up randomly I will have to switch to it. Futile, resignation.

Myself included!
