After spilling an entire Monster energy drink onto my new M1 MacBook Air I had to revert back to using my old MacBook Pro from 2012 for a while. Although it was mostly usable I was surprised how bad it was for web browsing. Very laggy scrolling, resizing, delayed keyboard input, pages constantly force reloading, etc. Though once my expectations were lowered I was able to adapt to it. When using a slower computer you just have to be more deliberate and thoughtfu to minimize unnecessary performance impacting actions. Overall it was good enough that I didn't rush out to fix or replace my broken computer for several months.
