Yeah, my time is way more valuable than a gigabyte of drive space. In what world is anyone's not today?

Mine, on my 128gb dual boot laptop.

How many docker containers would you deploy on a laptop? Also 128gb is tiny even for an SSD these days .

[-] milicent_bystandr@lemm.ee 1 points 1 hour ago

None, in fact, because I still haven't got in to using docker! But that is one of the factors that pushes it down the list of things to learn.

I've had a number of low-storage laptops, mostly on account of low budget. Ever since taking an 8GB netbook for work (and personal) in the mountains, I've developed space-saving strategies and habits!

It's a gigabyte of every customer's drive space.

[-] roofuskit@lemmy.world 0 points 11 hours ago

The value add is even better from a customers perspective.

That I can install far less software on legacy devices because everything new is ridiculously bloated?

Don't you get it? We've saved time and added some reliability to the software! It. Sure it takes 3-5x the resources it needs and costs everyone else money - WE saved time and can say it's reliable. /S
