It still had a pretty low requirement for ram… like 500Mb or so. I solved it switching, first to xfce4, which i loved and later on with i3wm whoch i believe asks like <4Mb. I may be wrong
That’s crazy. Nowadays I mainly use sway (tiling wm requiring loads of configuration, definitely not for everyone), which I thought was lightweight as well. But I just checked and it’s using a whole 500MB, wonder what it needs that for.
The only time i had issues with KDE when i was using a PC with 384 MB RAM (plasma 4)
I wouldnt blame that on kde
And KDE Plasma isn’t even one of the lightweight desktop environments. It’s honestly impressive how sluggish Microsoft made Windows feel.
