I mean, for most people, we hit the level of “does more than you could ever want” in the DDR2 era. For the average Instagram normie, what do they need from a Windows 11 PC that a Windows 7 machine couldn’t do?
So Linux Mint it is then? (Very “XP/Seven” like system IMO).
Kids always get the best gear (the shoemaker gets the worst shoes eh) so I was quite astonished that an old 6500T + 32GB (DDR4) is doing absolutely everything I need. It’s been my daily workhorse since at least 2 years.
It is amazing to me how often I’ll be presented with some old PC, some Optiplex or Ideapad or some other corporate/consumer sludge box that handles Windows 10 or 11 the way the human digestive system handles wet concrete, put Linux Mint on it and now it feels like my $2000 gaming PC until you really load it.

Well there’s certainly no improvements in the user experience, but they need more RAM to run all the user analytics and data harvesting
