It's similar to #15646. I have a Mac with more RAM permanently idling in my network. A smaller standalone app for connecting to the chat would be nice. But also a connection via configuration for the current app chat from the daily driver machines would be helpful.

thx in advance and kind regards

extent analysis

TL;DR

Consider developing a smaller standalone app or configuring the current app for remote connections to utilize the idle Mac's resources.

Guidance

  • Investigate the feasibility of creating a lightweight application for connecting to the chat, potentially reducing resource usage.
  • Explore configuration options for the existing app to enable connections from other machines, leveraging the idle Mac's capabilities.
  • Assess the network and security implications of allowing remote connections to the chat app.

Notes

The issue lacks specific technical details, making it challenging to provide a precise solution. The suggestions above are based on the user's request for a smaller app or configuration adjustments.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Developing a smaller standalone app or configuring the current app for remote connections seems to be the most viable approach, given the user's goal of utilizing the idle Mac's resources.
