And if it does slow down, I'm downloading the whole video before watching it.

My next plan will probably be switching to my Linux computer, then just downloading the video. That sucks for me though b/c I enjoy a live show I subscribe to.

Ads, on a live show I pay to watch, WTF? I keep the chat open in Chrome but leave the video muted and laugh at how far behind the video becomes after ads start popping up.

Next January, I'm gonna figure out gaming on Ubuntu so I can get ahead of support ending for Windows 10.

I'll probably run that copy of Windows in a VM JUST so I can use Excel. I use Excel at home for lots of stuff, particularly my personal budget, which has this really big macro I wrote from scratch that I really don't want to give up. I've had the same copy of Office 2010 for >10 years now. It's where Office peaked.

I'm choosing Ubuntu because of familiarity. I've been using it on old laptops since 12.10.

Proton GE edition should get your games going. Works for me so far!
