what specs do you have? im wondering since im planning to install it on my school laptop (lenovo thinkpad 11e 4th gen, 4gb ram, 128gb ssd, intel celeron, integrated graphics.) and in wondering if it would work somewhat fast, especially at web browsing.

The web is just heavy, no OS changes that. It will work fine but that ram could be filled by a few heavy sites.

yeah I just realised that fact, currently I use chromium and it is quite fast on my system so I don't think there will be issues there. aside from that, how fast are windows programs compared to ordinary windows?

blocking the stuff you dont want (ads and tracking ) with dns blocklists and adblocker can help a bit. linux has also the option to compress the contents of the ram with Zram. i have not used it myself yet.

Thats a very broad question. My general thought is don’t install Linux to use Windows software. It’s gotten pretty good, to nearly same performance, but I wouldn’t count on it.

I appreciate the help, I was asking as my school laptop runs horrendously slow on windows, but when I utilise a Linux live environment, it's suddenly bearable.

My apologies on the late reply, I currently have Bazzite on three devices, My main PC: Ryzen 7 3700X, RX 5600, 64Gb DDR4. My main laptop, a Lenovo E590. And my backup laptop: A Lenovo L412. So far, I prefer it over windows on all three.
