Before installing Linux, I had originally planned to dual-boot on my main PC, but somehow a gaming rig from 5 years ago isn't good enough to run windows 11, which is ridiculous.

These memes about required specs make Linux look like its primary userbase are bums.

    I have Linux running on a machine with 256 MB of RAM and a single core 700 MHz ARM11 CPU.

    I also have it running on a machine with 128 multi-gigahertz cores and a terabyte of RAM. That flexibility is part of why I use Linux.

    I think it means we like to be able to make full use...

    Whether its a couple of servers with 4416+'s with 128GB ram and a pair of rtx 6000s or an 11yr old thinkpad w/8GB ram, its not the OS getting in my way.
