> As long as you use proprietary OSes, do not ever update past what has come with the hardware(reinstall back to it if needed). That's why there are still machines using windows xp still in use today. That's where you will get the fastest/best experience.

This is terrible advice that would cause a TON of people to become exposed to patched vulnerabilities.

One man's terrible advice is another man's amazing advice.

You either use libre software and have great speed while also having patched vulnerabilities(you can DIY if nothing else).

Or you can use proprietary software and never update to get good speed.

Or use patched proprietary software and have poor performance.

But never all three. You just can't have everything in this world.
