My personal Nobara install idles at 2.5GB. Meanwhile my W11 laptop at work idles somewhere between 10-11GB. That’s a lot of data getting used up when the computer is doing literally nothing.
No matter how “bloated” you think popular Linux distros are, none of them are remotely close to W11. The worst I know of is Bazzite, which can sit around 4Gb at idle
Crikey. Yeah before I used Linux I had Windows, and I’m not a casual user. I know what I’m talking about… My first self-hosted services were on Windows: Emby and Home Assistant OS. With those two (VERY minimal) services, and of course Microsoft’s antivirus program MsMpEng.exe, as well as a pretty constant NTFS error scanner on my hard drive, the system would regularly run out of memory, have I/O delay and crash at least twice a week. The reason? Microsoft’s programs.
I switched to Proxmox, based on Linux with exclusively Linux containers and VMs, and now have near flawless (months-long) uptime, minimal resource and power usage… And I now have nearly 30 services full-time.
But I’m sure that user is referring to a PC experience, not a server. With which I can also disagree, on account of a very easy control over what is and isn’t installed, what does and doesn’t leave files and Registry settings after uninstalling, and what has the most freedom. Plus, I’d hazard, any current and maintained stock Linux distro has no issues whatsoever running VLC.
