What it is I look at Linux mint for a few untill 21 came out and the desk top
with nothing running it only uses about 600mg of ram . And when I was using ver
20 with the older ver of gnome desktop installed it used about 650 mg of ram

It's _probably_ Linux working as designed.
And you say you have 8gb of RAM, so using half of it for your running
programs gives you a lot of breathing room. What is the problem you're
looking to fix?
If you want to investigate further, you might want to look at the
ps_mem command (sudo dnf install ps_mem; sudo ps_mem). That will give
you a better idea of where the memory is going (outside of kernel
usage).
