Just being curious:

where the OS itself uses a minimum amount of Hardware?

Thanks for your understanding

Void with Xfce (potato laptop), Void with Cinnamon, Gentoo with Sway/Hyprland. I have switched to Sway on openRC systems (laptops) but still use Hyprland with Systemd (desktop). Sway and Hyprland aren’t full de though. Cinnamon is my choice when having a full DE. It’s like the old gnome used to be. Peppermint looks good but haven’t tried it.
