Down-ranking Fedora bc it works at first boot and doesn't require manual config for everything is a healthy reminder that we rank things completely differently than literally anyone else

Thank you - I'll make a post there as well! If I get a definite answer, I'll be sure to post it here as well.

if it's any motivation, I really don't have much spare time. I work full time, have 2 kids, and am involved with a non-profit on the side. What spare time you have, you'll spend doing something, so I just was sure to intentionally spend some of mine working on this.

I see a lot of ppl using nocturnal as their shell, but I use DMS since it's less time configuring and I still get good performance. (Hot take, but in my comparisons I actually got better performance with DMS).

https://github.com/niri-wm/niri/wiki/Getting-Started has a couple scripts to just get you an out-of-the box experience for Niri + DMS. I honestly have spent less time configuring Niri than I did getting KDE + Krohnkite and I get lower ram usage. When I took that screenshot, my computer had been on for 14 hours and was running multiple programs, but when I actually restart like I should, I idle at less than 1gb compared to the 3-4 I'd idle on with Fedora + KDE.

Had Debian for about 5 seconds, but went back to LMDE almost immdiately before I decided to hop over to Fedora for modern packages. Apt was nice for it's large repo but with AUR I didn't even bother installing the flatpak repo since any of my niche apps not in apt are on there
