yup

with spotify or discord open in the background i can't even play youtube in fullscreen without my videos lagging or buffering
it depends on the game too

Technically speaking, yes. The more applications your system is running at once, the more processing power it needs to allocate.

Just use Spotify on your phone. You can find a more PC-like version with a little digging.
yea bad idea to assume they have a phone ._.
