I feel special when my 6 year old laptop runs circles around your new shit because I know how to maintain it and don’t install every fucking app I find.
Yeah, it’s fine for now. If you’re doing anything more than the absolute basic, you’ll need 16+ now (on Win 11). Somewhat related, but my work computer was stuck, slow, and crashing at 99% utilization on 8GB until I added a card (my money). Now it stays around 85% on 16GB.

& also you probably know to spec it appropriately; most slow laptops I see have 8 gigs ram.
Is 8 considered little?

For a Windows 11 machine 8GB is getting to be a limitation. Basically for right now its fine, but very soon 16GB will be the new minimum
8 gigs of ram is plenty to run firefox and microsoft office
