CondaMemoryError: The conda process ran out of memory

I installed conda through miniforge : https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge

My environment was working normally until recently where any conda command results in:

Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): failed

CondaMemoryError: The conda process ran out of memory. Increase system memory and/or try again.

I have a MacBook Pro 13-inch, M1 2020 with 16 GB. It always has at least 6GB free memory

I don't understand why conda complains about lack of memory here
