A lot of Linux distros do this by default. Alternatively you can use /dev/shm which is guaranteed to always be a RAM disk.

This is what I do. But the thing is, I can only have so much RAM on my motherboard.
Alternatively, I’ve been using zram to better utilize the space, but the original issue remains.
