I've been running Slackware since 2002, once or twice I managed to run it out of memory and start swapping and become slow but thats the only times. usually its when my son wants to play minecraft and has me load some huge buggy modpack.

I still like Firefox but you have to muck with a lot of settings in about:config for privacy and speed. These days I do most of my browsing in the Tor Browser to protect myself from corporate data mining. This site, for example, uses Cloudflare but if you block it it still works fine. Why use it at all if it's not needed? I'm tired of being tracked.
