Re: [PLUG] best?

Also, they mistake the straight up WMs and DEs for their respective ecosystem. A base install of KDE Plasma 5.18 without the extra "applications" package is pretty trim on resources and still extremely functional. My Manjaro setup with plasma 5.18.5 around 800mb ram as the base DE. Hardly the memory hog it's portrayed in the article. A full-blown DE like KDE, Mate, XFCE, etc will definitely use more memory than simple window managers.

The article is kinda comparing lemons (WMs) to lemonade (DEs).

Really "Desktop Environment"? So they chose GNOME, KDE, Cinnamon, Awesome and Regolith? I never heard of Regolith before, but apparently its a customized i3. But i3 and Awesome are not really DE's. Where is XFCE, MATE, Budgie, or Pantheon?

Or perhaps I spend too much time toying with Linux Window Managers and DE's.
