Hey DT, don't change the keyboard! How else are we going to know how strong and complicated the password is ?

Eric Murphy here on YouTube did a VERY GOOD video on that just several days ago. It has recent, real world examples of what happens when you don't have privacy. I cannot recommend it enough.

Yeah, I wish someone would do a in depth check on explanation on that. I think a bit of it is bloat, but it's also like you said, having things pre cached so some things are faster. And when you start those other programs, the difference between a minimalistic WM/DE and Gnome shrinks. I just wish someone would demistify that, and we can see the values by ourselves. Still, for the vast majority of normal users, 800-1200 MB of RAM at startup is still plenty fine. It's a bit much, I'd say, only on 4GB or lower systems.

It's a running meme, I'm sure that the commenter just did it for the laughs.

To be frank, for today 5700X and 6750 XT are both last generation, so, no, it is not "modern" enough. Because I assume that question, the modern hardware, is about drivers. Which can lag behind hardware launches by several months. Which can turn to a year or even more on some distros. Your CPU and GPU are both 2 year old if I'm not mistaken, even Debian has support for them.

@ScoldAudits True, you're absolutely correct!

DT doesn't have Windows experience (at least not recent one) so how could he make a course for experienced Windows users, if he doesn't know what they know and like ? For that, Chris Titus Tech would be BY FAR the best candidate. He is actually very knowledgeable about Windows, even written software for it, including a debloating tool. And he knows Linux too, on a decently advanced level.
