Currently, memory usage is shown based on used + buffers/cache counters (https://github.com/OutsideIT/FireMotD/blob/master/FireMotD#L401), for example:
Memory -> Free: 0.22GB (1%), Used: 31.03GB (99%), Total: 31.26GB
This is confusing for less experienced users (cfr. https://www.linuxatemyram.com/). It might be useful to display available memory instead/too, based on the available parameter of the free command:
$ free -g
total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 31 16 0 0 14 13
Swap: 1 0 1
