2GB RAM should be enough to run any browser with a few tabs churning shitty js. But nothing more than that.
But you forgot to mention the CPU, the most important thing for what you’re asking. And looking at the rest, esp. the GPU, this is likely a consumer laptop from 2012.
So, with a low-end CPU of that time, most commenters are right.
Anyhow it’s not really a question of which browser, more of what content you want to see on it. Definitely not Youtube and social media.
But maybe don’t throw the machine away and use it for other things. That’s the power of Linux, not that it can magically triple your hardware.
OK, I’ll throw my 2ct in the ring:
