It could be degraded storage, older tablets and some low end tablets have emmc storage which degrades quicker iirc. Also sometimes a good factory reset can do wonders if your device is borked. But it sounds like you've moved on anyways

There is a lot of hidden data, something like a good 70% of my drive is taken up by "pther" and doesn't tell me what "other" means or to get rid.a factory reset could help.

I do use this tablet still. Mostly for discord, reddit/lemmy before I go to sleep and sometimes when I wake up. The tablet works for those purposes.
