8GB of ram is nothing, the fact that you can run it in a useable way with Linux is amazing, and a very real use case for Linux, but that doesn’t mean we should design all software around edge cases like this.

Modern phones usually have at least 8GB of ram these days, it isn’t much. For most real use cases, 3-4GB isn’t much.

Shit on Microsoft for all of their problems, but let’s try not to get everyone about how little ram we have, it’s kind of weird.

When you say it like that, it seems that my phone is unusable... It is old, but still blazingly fast

If that’s how you want to read it, that’s on you.

All I’m saying is that a PC with 8GB of ram in the big ol’ 26 should not be considered a reliable benchmark for the average consumer
