The processor is still fast enough, the ram is too small for modern web apps.

Good point, also likely 8 years of OS bloat leaving less RAM for the browser.

2018 was iOS 12 which was a very good year for iOS optimization, things have been downhill since then.

I have 4 GB which is typical for these, and admittedly low by modern standards. The 1 TB model had 6 GB but was $1750.
