this is my next OS to experiment with. However i'm worried my toy laptop with 16gb of ram (thinkpad t480) wont cut it.

Anyone want to chime in here?

I've been daily driving it on my Thinkpad T580 with 16gb of ram for the past two years. I really enjoy it. Very occasionally it tells me that it's running out of RAM, but when that happens it's usually because I forgot to shutdown some VMs. Besides for that everything works great. I'd recommend using an SSD though with at least 512GB of storage, but better with 1TB.
