    Well, I’m installing Linux (CachyOS) on my former W10 PC this weekend. So, my 16gb of ram will be well utilized.

    At least someone still cares about optimization.

      And CachyOS running KDE Plasma is the most RAM hungry setup. I took a Win 11 laptop with 8gb and threw Debian running Xfce and that’s using like 300mb of RAM lol

        I guess going from 7-8 to 600-1.2k seemed like such an improvement I didn’t think to GO HARDER to 300. Though my Ubuntu server VMs get that I assume lol.
