Either pxe netboot or usb or installable. Immuttable or not. Ramfs. With a host selector or fully auto login ?
Ultra light 16 to 128mb storage 64-128mb ram. Or “full sized”
And lastly, something like that, but that would run on a proxmox host.

Megabytes, a thousand of which make a gigabyte. Chrome in my machine right now is taking over one gigabyte of memory, that alone is using more than 8 times what OP wants the whole system to. It’s definitely an ask for low memory, almost embedded levels of ram.
Chrome is actually doing a lot of work to display modern webpages though. A thin client only needs to receive a video stream and send inputs to a server. That can be done with an extremely low memory footprint. The Steam Link only had 512MB of RAM and it actually ran a steam client (which contains embedded chromium) instead of acting as a pure thin client.
I wouldn’t be against something that needs 1gb or 4gb. Of course it’s different hardware class, but if it actually does a better job, it would be fine.
Although I suspect for a thin client, 512mb would be more than enough and adding more wouldn’t improve much of anything.
