The link makes it seem like crap hardware, and sure 4gb of ram is really crappy. But how does this compare with one of my kid’s Fire tablets? Does anyone have opinions on that?

    You can’t really compare RAM between iPadOS and Linux, just like you can’t compare either to Windows or Android. The schedulers and even just how the OSs use RAM is too different. This is why Android needs 2x the ram of a similar device running a different OS.
