Been mainly using linux for close to 20 years, with occasional windows use for certain software. So I’m just used to it. I’m still using (occasionally) a 2012 Thinkpad t420. Works just fine for what I need it to do, though admittedly modern websites bring it to its limits.
New job has me using a windows thinkpad with teams and outlook and edge and all that. Lord have mercy. 16GB of RAM are always close to full even with my apps only using 3-4GB max. A click or button takes a second or more for anything to happen, the thing runs hot af with me doing nothing but reading a webpage.
It’s so bad. I knew Linux was better before, but I wasn’t aware just how much better. How terribly bloated and worse Windows has become since the XP days. I had no idea.
Every day when I get home I need to briefly touch my own computer, just so I don’t end up hating computers in general.
Wow.
P.S.: and I have to use a bloody mouse again. My arm hurts…
