    My wife’s 2019 16" MPB is running pretty great. Probably got another 5 years of life left in it. She uses it to watch YouTube and play Sims 4.

    My 2016 Acer Aspire V3-372T is hanging in there running Debian. 60 FPS YouTube videos are getting to be too much for it anymore. I may have to put the old girl to rest one of these days.

    But hey, it does play Minetest pretty flawlessly.

      I envy you, because my 2019 MBPro has fans always spinning and it seems slow and bugged, especially with the latest macOS.

      Maybe I should just try formatting, but I don’t know if it’s worth the hassle.

      We have a 2010 laptop that was useless with Windows. Runs NixOS now. Wife uses it for youtube, zoom calls, email etc. It is super responsive.
