Just switched to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. My Windows setup was eating 4GB+ RAM just sitting on the desktop. Open 2-3 browser tabs? Boom 5.5GB gone.
On Ubuntu? The entire system is idling at a crisp 1.7GB.
With RAM prices so high, Linux is the smartest hardware upgrade you can get. Plus, it came with every app I need right out of the box.
The best PC upgrade in 2026 isn't a new stick of RAM, it's a USB drive with Linux.
