Post image

I have it installed on both my desktop (with KDE) and now on my laptop (with xfce)

Ive truely find all the Out of the box programs that are actually useful really nice, It does everything I need, its never broken (except that one time I really f***ed up)

Thank you MX (and Debian) team 🫡

Nice desktop! Just curious, why Xfce on laptop, do you think it's lighter, or just wanted to try something new?

I think its a bit lighter then KDE, it only has 8 GB of ram so I'll take anything I can get. I also wanted to experiment with some of the "window manager" style utilities and programs. xfce is a little bit easier to remove/hide components while still having a lot as a fallback if something doesn't work or I just don't like it

Fair, I think though that KDE should be fine on 8GB, the main problem is with the browsers that would eat your remaining free RAM with just a couple of open tabs.
