Do you uBlock origin installed?
It should block ads n unnecessary stuff to save some data.

You could filter/block images and audo/video/media(from all websites or some specific websites) if you want to save even more data.

$image,media,important
Adding that in your filter list would block all images and media, from all websites. You can adjust it for the specific websites that you want it to affect.

meme should be the other way around.

The imgflipreference at the bottom left is there to remind us that the image should be flipped.

Thank you.

If you haven't tried them, I recommend giving them a try. They all have something to offer.

I have tried them on desktop and in most cases, I did not have any serious issue with them. I was thinking which one would be better optimised for laptops.

KDE handled things very well

I'm on KDE now. It's good. Was thinking whether there are any DE's that are specifically recommended for laptops, for efficiency or ease of use.

best option

Ubuntu is popular and new-user friendly. And xfce is generally lighter on resources. It's a good choice.

What can I do

Almost everything.
Some proprietary apps you've used from windows may not be available, but equivalent ones would be available on linux.
Stuff like browsing the web(provided that you don't open too many tabs, because you have low ram) and watching movies n all is quite good.
What all things fo you intend to do on it? I think it'll be easier to check that the things you want are there.

Android phones have the Android OS from Google(or a modified version by the manufacturer of the phone).
We can install other unofficial versions of Android(modified by other people).

Thid link maybe useful for understanding the term Flashing:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firmware#Flashing

But it is risky, as there is a chance that it can go wrong 'brick' your phone. It's named so, because on failure, your phone may become unresponsive and would only be as useful as a brick or paper-weight.
There's hard-bricking and soft-bricking, where the latter is used when the bricking can be fixed/reversed.

This link maybe better at explaining than I am:

Have you informed the admin of your instance?
I think they'll be able help you better, whether it's some server error or so?

Hsve seen LotGH and Blame. They're quite cool. Haven't seen the other two. Will try those out, so thank you

Both of these anime are quite meaningful for me, similar to LotGH. The species vs species strife and conclusions of the protags, everything is impactful.

  • Psycho-pass
    Probably the most popular among the ones I mentioned.

  • Vampire Hunter D 2000
    This one would be loosely sci-fi, with strong amounts of mythical fantasy.
    The art is beautiful and the overall theme and execution seems unique, even if it's not as deeply involving as the previous 3(might be because of the overall length of the content).

And regarding LotGH, did you watch the remake or the original series? I've heard that both are good. Is it so?
