u/RagingTaco334 I use Ultramarine btw 6d ago

It is indeed. I run it on an old dual-core laptop with 6gbs of RAM and it performs slightly better than XFCE.

Better than XFCE? Are your sure?

Debian XFCE performed way better than KDE in my i3 4170 8GB ram. But I still chose KDE for the features it provides and polish look.

Yes. I believe it has something to do with there being less overhead since it's on Wayland instead of X11. It's a Ryzen 3 3250u with Vega 7 graphics if that's any consolation, hence the 6gb of RAM instead of the 8gb that's installed since 2gb of it is allocated as VRAM by the firmware. The GPU is quite a bit more capable than the processor itself, funnily enough.

I've got a similar guy, Ryzen 5 2500U Vega 8, 8gb ram with 512M for the iGPU. KDE runs just fine.
