> I mean it's not literally killing old PC hardware, but it is meaning old PCs are now becoming worthless e-waste (aka dead) because they can't browse websites like YouTube and playback videos... The internet is not designed for older hardware anymore, so it doesn't really matter what operating system you put on it, normal websites are now so multi-media rich and advert packed, that older hardware is going to struggle Hah, posted as a comment to a YouTube video. I know you have to go where your audience is. But like, block ads, block most JavaScript, don’t go on YouTube, and the internet is much better. This shoves you off into a smaller sub-sector of the internet. But if you are somebody who is nostalgic for the era when the internet didn’t suck so bad, it was quite a bit smaller back then too.
