Only a problem for gamers since they need performance and being online with that performance.
The rest of us do well with an older computer with nothing newer than 8.1 or linux on it, or a PI running linux for all our online needs.
Does make a good argument in favor of 2 computers though, one for online usage and one that is ONLY used for gaming and the 2 being very much air gapped....
RaspberryPi4 does really well for most things, but is insufficient for bad websites. The Internet is shit. You need 4 high powered cores to look up recipes. Practically every stupid website tries to auto-play their video, record every action to multiple analytics sites, load chat dialogs, etc. I cant browse the internet comfortably without a pihole on my i7 4790K. All these shitty electron apps use tons of ram too.
I've not really had much issue as long as NoScript is running and my adblockers take care of the rest. Been wanting to build a pi-hole, but shrug ... I just can't be assed.
I use firefox, granted it's on a old crappy desktop with 4gb ram and running 8.1 and not on a PI(yet) but with the noScrip and add blockers I use I rarely encounter any autoplays, and you learn to recognize which scripts provide function and content and which don't, and which to permanently allow and which to only allow when you have to.
Hell, I have zero ads on all socials including youtube.....
haha dudes, 'modern' websites are requiring hundreds of megs PER PAGE.
can we send these programmer faggots to the moon? that would be a better use of their salary.
