I actually can't believe this is real. I thought my laptop had been slowing down recently which made me very sad because I paid good money for it, and for what? Just for it to struggle with multiple browser tabs, at less than 1 years of age?? But then I switch to Linux. My computer barely even uses the fan, no matter what tomfoolery I'm up to. It turns out that windows runs so many trackers, ads, bloatware and whatnot in the background that a good 30-40% of my CPU went to just running the OS. And apparently that is not normal, it's only windows that does this. Like fuck, forget buying new hardware, just switch to Linux for a free, massive performance boost. This is actually insane.
