that's why I've been doing most of my gamedev stuff on an old craptop from 2016.
performance issues become apparent immediately
Can you even run Windows with just 2gb?
Yes it can!
Tiny11 is a stripped down custom build of Windows 11, which only requires 8 GB of storage and 2 GB of RAM.
Someone even got it to run on 200MB of RAM.
Hell yeah, I'd be getting paid for shouting at people
I like how KDE has been getting faster and faster as time went on. Like Lisa Simpson's perpetuum mobile.
Yeah, screw CEF, Electron, and webdevs who can't live without those.
I wrote an email service called Port87, and I did it on a really low end laptop (an Ideapad 3 from 2021) to make sure that it works well, even on a potato.
I would love to be this person. I'll even fix some of the bugs I find.
