By skyforbes I have a ThinkPad T480s that was running windows 10 which was pretty much for learning, getting certifications , some coding and pretty much light stuff. I wanted to do a project which included running code on Pycharm and using android studio to open a virtual android device. My laptop just couldn't take it, it was getting hot like crazy, stuttering all over, I could barley make it run. I was very close to just buy a new one and then I thought to try Linux Mint after some documentation.
Oh man, my fans are barely running now even when I am fully loaded for my project. It runs like a brand new pc. I was expecting to be better, but not that good. Thank you Linux!
