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

It might actually be an issue with the OEMs version of Android and it's RAM management.

Not sure if there's a way to adjust it, but you could try using LineageOS?

I also experience this on LOS, but on an FP3 so RAM could be an issue on my end.
