It's all about latency. Both of the following made my computers feel super snappy again!
Liquorix kernel: https://liquorix.net/ ... Just a well-tuned kernel build, really.
Kitty terminal: https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/ ... It took a while to make Kitty play nice with GNU Screen because the author has a hate-on for terminal multiplexers, but it was totally worth it.
Recently I fell into a wormhole, or rather time sink, playing with a Gameboy emulator that runs in the browser.

There's something so satisfying about a virtual machine that fits in a ~106K WASM file, that can play hundreds of classic games like Teris and Super Mario Bros (via ROM collections on Internet Archive). I don't usually play games, but this emulator is so cute and fun, I keep coming back to waste time on it.
Actually, PICO-8 was the last time I felt this kind of child-like joy about a computer.
I get a similar feeling from this Infinite Mac project.

It's so pleasing to see a running Macintosh in the browser. That interface feels like an old friend. The underlying VM, BasiliskII, is a little less than 1MB WASM file. Amazing!
From the entertaining article, I learned about "retrocomputing". OK, so that's what I'm into, haha.
