From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Dude there is someone asking for a "lighting fast browser experience" on specs which will not deliver that for most websites most people use.
An honest reply IMHO is to state what will work and what will not.
You set false expectations when basically telling him "yeah no problem".
I try to differentiate this picture by showing what caviots there are.
The reality is: if you are a tech savy person, only use a subset of websites, to which most of the popular websites (youtube, Netflix, prime, insta, etc.pp.) don't belong, you can get something to work. Do I use silicon-valley websites or think they are good? No! But someone who asks such questions is probably not someone who only thinks of HTML only websites and the like when wanting a fast browser.
I try to give honest advise and show that a lighting fast browsing experience is not the same as "you can visit some websites with very light loads and need to close the browser, open terminal and yt dlp, download the video and watch it in a lightweight video player".
Its not about competition it's about actually helping the person looking for advice.
There are just html only websites ?
