From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What's wrong with your pc if Task Manager runs like ass lol.
Task Manager is like... The one thing guaranteed to run on a potato
Have you tried out the Windows 11 22h2 version? THAT one is crappy af. Even switching between menus in the sidepanel can take a few seconds to register, and I‘ve had friends with powerful Nvidia GPUs report about the same issue.
Are you on windows 11 yet? The only place where I still use windows is my company notebook. And it's not top notch high end, but it has a ssd, it has a 6 core cpu and it has 16 GB of RAM, yet it still runs like absolute ass.
With virtually NOTHING going on, it takes about 3 - 5 seconds for task manager to open. Clicking on "processes" takes 5 seconds, not just the first time, but every-time I switch to processes (or pretty much any tab for that matter). I too believed that there was probably an issue with my device or something, but I just had to use a replacement notebook that has even newer hardware and it runs exactly the same..
Now is that unusable? No, I'm probably a bit nit-picky. But it does absolutely infuriate me that Microsoft seems to struggle more and more with performance with every new windows version, especially when I also work with Linux systems that just are 10 times smoother with half the hardware specs..
Before windows 11, I would more or less agree with you. Task manager would be reliable even when the machine was struggling. But since I use windows 11, I had task manager crash multiple times.
