I'm using a 6 year old ThinkPad X250 with 4GB of RAM. The benefit of using it is that I have zero tolerance for bloated software because it just won't run on my machine. This includes the software I make. And you're right, developers SHOULD be using the lowest possible spec of the target market. Whenever I visit some bloated SPA that crashes my browser I always imagine the developer being some smug chap with a fully specced MacBook Pro patting themselves on the back for what a smooth website they've built.
