gollark: Technically, the worst computer I have is probably my old ~2015 phone, which still sort of works (it can boot into recovery fine but not into actual Android, and the battery doesn't actually work and the USB cable doesn't fit half the time). Otherwise, the Windows XP laptop with a... Pentium 3 or something, I forgot, which is lying around somewhere.
gollark: Memory, sure, but CPU?
gollark: Huh. Weird, then.
gollark: I use the web version, which means I can have multiple tabs open, and it has less data gathering ability, and it uses marginally less system resources.
gollark: The "application" for it is Electron, which is basically just a glorified Chrome tab.
