Really. I’ve run things like KDE or COSMIC Atomic, (COSMIC is actually pretty sweet on this one), on a 128Gb SSD, 8Gb shared DDR4, Celeron J3355, and whatever crappy Intel video chip it’s got. It’s my distro fun box and let’s see if I can break this install box. With a heavier weight DE, like KDE or Gnome, there can be a slight lag of perhaps a second when opening multiple programs. Or running math heavy stuff like CAD and a browser that’s been open all day.
My “new” mini I got last spring, is much faster with a Ryzen 5 with the Radon 760M onboard video and 16Gb of DDR5. There is no lag that I can decern opening multiple programs under Kinonite 45 of course.

I don’t know, maybe I just have more patience.
