I don’t get why Android phones have so much ram.
They often have more ram than my wife’s MacBook and the same or my as my desktop.
How much ram is needed if you’re not gaming or video editing?
In my case, it’s a very occasional picture or video recorded and then just social media apps and web. Do I need to get a phone with 12gb? Or is that just thrown in there for marketing?
I would never spec a Windows machine with less than 16.
Even for a casual user. The problems it causes aren’t worth saving $50.
I haven’t use Windows as a daily driver in a while. Now that I think about it I’m out of touch.
Lol, lucky you.
Though honestly, Linux is as bad as Windows in its own way, though it has improved tremendously.
Linux has the problem that it can be great for non-technical users, but power users run into odd things you just wouldn’t think of in windows, like RDP clients defaulting to TLS even for actual RDP connections, then failing to connect. Why would I think to look at TLS when I chose RDP? On top of that, some builds by default deprecate TLS 1 (I think), and if you don’t know that you go down a troubleshooting rabbit hole.
Still, glad to have the Linux option, and the builds today that really “just work”.
