Hi there, helping a friend and his 4 GB RAM laptop out. His mother won't allow him to get another OS as I suggested, so we're stuck with Windows 10.

Tbh today you only have firefox and chromium based browser, most of them use similar amount of memory. On my laptop with 4gb of ram (which is running endeavoros with xfce) I'm using firefox with multiple add-ons. I suggest installing ublock origin, but I wouldn't expect much of a difference on that tier of hardware
