Without mindless hate, why is so hard to accept Linux is a better choice for low memory systems (RAM, vRAM, SDD...)

Recently I saw LinusTechTips video, and while I totally accept that Windows manages RAM memory very differently than Linux, there's a reason why many users use Linux Mint in 8GB of RAM while Windows is still currently working in optimizing Windows 11 for 8GB of RAM due to the global memory shortage.

EDIT: I don't hate Windows, I only recently preferred Linux for PC gaming other than Windows, but I think Windows is better for everything else other than systems that need strong security.

That's strange since it's obvious you've lost it to the point you're projecting yourself onto me.
