I, for one, love not being stuck on Windows. I have a dual boot since I need it for a handful of things, but being 99% on Linux just makes life better.

There's so much crap jammed into Windows, and always has been, that being without it without any loss of functionality is a breath of fresh air. I also consistently run into QOL features that it's stupid for Windows now to have, like when I'm downloading multiple files and the OS zips them automatically or the 'move to the other monitor' button.

Windows runs fine on 8GB RAM or the same modern distros with half the bells and whistles recommend. (Yes, they changed their stance recently).

Linux can run on a pizza box if one is determined.

Pizza box is of no consequence to the OS. You're putting yourself down with this propaganda.
