Error with plotly() in R with large dataset

RStudio keeps crashing 💣
If you're trying to plot 10k or more points, ggplot can get really slow (and memory heavy). Do you really need to plot that many points (could I just plot of sample of them, or averages, ...) ? If yes, take a look at scattermore.
What are some alternatives?
