"Modern Linux is powerful, flexible, stable, and secure. With the exception of some of the more lightweight Linux distributions, it's also far more resource-dependent (just like all modern operating systems). Also: 5 things to consider before leaping from one Linux distribution to another Consider this: The minimum system requirements for Ubuntu Desktop today include just 4GB of RAM. I've run Ubuntu on a virtual machine with only 3GB of RAM."
"RAM acts as a fast, temporary storage area for data that the computer is actively using. Essentially, your OS stores data in RAM because it's much faster than your local storage. RAM is crucial for speed and responsiveness, multitasking, better performance for demanding tasks, a smooth user experience, and future-proofing your computer. Without RAM, your computer would behave poorly (or not at all)."
RAM provides fast, temporary storage for actively used data, enabling speed, responsiveness, multitasking, improved performance for demanding tasks, a smoother user experience, and future-proofing a computer. Modern Linux is powerful, flexible, stable, secure, and in many cases more resource-dependent than older distributions, with the exception of some lightweight variants. Ubuntu Desktop lists 4GB of RAM as a minimum, and Ubuntu can operate in virtual machines with 3GB, although that level is not recommended for typical use. Limited RAM reduces available browser tabs, prevents gaming, and eliminates practical use of RAM drives for temporary files and thumbnails.
