I have a 2015 13" Macbook Air with 4gb ram, and a new battery running, Mint with i3 wm and except for a few very unoptimised webpages I don’t experience any significant lagg when browsing. streaming 1920x1080 video without issues(the screen resolution is 1440x900 so no need for more) sure I only use it for writing on the go and minor surfing, anything heavier like video editing or Blender I do on my main desktop or my lenovo legion. This whole - anything less than 16gb ram is garbage in current year. Does not take into account that a lot of consumers and middle managers actually don’t do anything heavy on their computers.

I agree. Few issues have a single correct answer.

Although your GIF is indeed a great quip about the length of my post, it also illustrates a broader societal issue. Namely, the lack of time or willingness to engage with political topics that aren’t formulated in short slogans. Both unfortunately for many people a product of the society we live in. I am a proponent of 4 day work week(or 6h/day), for this very reason. Unfortunately, some issues require more than a sentence or two to properly explain, argue or convey.

Thanks for taking the time to answer the call for feedback. The more feedback they received stating similar views, the more likely they are to adopt policies that align with the publics view. Especially if they are pragmatic.
