I know next to nothing about computers but am in the market for one strictly to edit gopro videos. Would this laptop be ok for that?
If editing 4k video, you'll definitely need a laptop with a dedicated GPU. This laptop is more of a media consumption device and for doing some office work.

For editing video, most video apps can fully use the iGPU included in this setup. It's pretty good, fine for basic use.
Quite remarkable what you can get under $300 nowadays. 120hz becoming standard is also a real treat (even for office use!). Low display brightness at 250 nit probably the only issue for me.
Dell Inspiron series is piece of Chinese plastic shit. Don't waste your money.
I spent 1k on Dell Inspiron laptop with 64 GB ram ,i7 processor etc but it's a shitty laptop sometimes struggle to play YouTube video.
Basic Inspiron series is crap with poor build quality.
I always get the Inspiron 2 in 1 and I have never been disappointed. Touch screen, beautiful screen, much lighter than Basic Inspiron and no performance issues.

You can look up 'DDR4 32gb sodimm' and 'NVME SSD 1TB' in Amazon - I wasn't referring to specific products but just ballpark prices for those items.
Here's a video that talks about how to do the actual upgrade - apologies if you already knew how to do this but I figured it might help newbies like myself
I think a lot of us (could be wrong?) have some old 2.5 SSD form factor SSD drive lying around even if it's one of those ancient 240 GB or thereabouts drives so no harm plugging one in and getting some extra storage if it's just sitting around doing nothing
I miss the days when the crucial MX500 was $50 for a 1 TB drive .. but I've had good luck with them, have purchased several that are still going strong in various desktop/laptop PC's.. they are a 2.5 form factor so if you really want to upgrade the heck out of this laptop you could throw one of those in there too
although sadly it's $90 for the 1 TB model but back in it's day was very highly reviewed ... on the other hand there are people who say cheaper, non DRAM 2.5 form factor SSD drives are perfectly fine too.. in addition to adding more storage space for files and so forth (I really like the idea of files on a different hard drive so if you're forced to restore an earlier version of Windows you don't lose the files) you can put a windows backup on the secondary drive too (if you can find the free version of macrium reflect 7 I like that one in particular)

Fine; it's plenty fast for a little kid doing basic Roblox. When they get into Call of Duty, then you will need a machine with a serious GPU.
