Windows doesn’t struggle with 16GB at all unless you’re doing something that obviously needs as much memory as you can give it, like anything made by Adobe.
For 9/10 users 16GB is plenty, even with common apps that hoard it like it’s some sort of hard drug (Chrome).
I’m sitting at 22 gigs used with a browser, teams, and an IDE. The browser is taking about 1.6, the IDE as well. Teams is taking 2. Then there’s a bunch of little web views and other BS that windows has spawned gobbling up it all.
