More like 10/15, but sure.
That's more to do with up to date software though, really. Windows 10 when properly configured was perfectly snappy on older hardware.
> it's less true nowadays because most stuff run in the web browser,
I don't think it was ever really that true.
> with any decent gnu/linux you won't be running spyware/adware and useless ai stuff
Yeah bundled software sucks, but it's not fair to judge the OS with it ifit can be removed, and if tech users like yourself would be removing it.
> yeah i'm a tech geek that likes playing with tech (easy bet given what website we're both posting on) -- so ?
Just clarifying your statement was not in general terms.
