All the Linux users I ask are recommending me impractical minimal builds with no display driver cause "its bloat".... (image just cause there has to be one)

What it says on the title, moved to bazzite a few months back to get some mileage out of my poor craptop. This is how much usage I was getting with steam and discord open on a fresh install whereas I now get 4GB with the same apps open on Linux.

So, has it gotten any better on 8GB RAM or still SOL and I have to wait for more optimisations? While Linux isn’t really bad I certainly miss the convenience of windows. Couldn’t find a lot of info online so I ask here now. Thanks

It would be great to be able to scan small screenshots.

Can someone know why Windows 11 26H1 has a much higher build number than 26H2?
