    Help setting up my system thats best for my 2015 macbook pro 8gb ram

    Hello! I am new to linux and switched from mint cinnamon to Kubuntu and loving it so far it's much easier and running better on my system so far. I mostly browse on the internet and watch twitch and youtube and also use ChatGPT and Gemini. while using chatgpt my brave browser crashed and my system told me I ran out of memory so I changed my settings to this: (6gbswap) (zswap enabled) (swappiness40) chatgpt told me this was best for my system is this true? or is there better settings I could apply? also anything else I should do for performance or that would give me a smoother experience I did install TLP but chatgpt told me I did not need mbpfan. I did update my system as well I believe. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED!

    Welcome. What we need to start with, is your PCs system specifications.

        What version of Kubuntu are you running? Are you running Kubuntu in a virtual machine, and if so, which one?

            Are you running Kubuntu in a virtual machine, or did you replace the Apple OS and are running Kubuntu as the sole OS on the macbook?
