I hop a lot but seem to keep returning to Nutyx. I love the installer, so simple. I like light and fast, my preference is Nutyx and Enlightenment. Last year, my setup consumed 220Mb at startup. I have noticed the linux kernel seems to use an additional 200Mb at boot now, not just Nutyx but Debian and Arch also. Pipewire also adds a bit. So enlightenment now uses 450Mb at boot and Mate around 600Mb. I have spent the day installing distros one after the other. My requirement was simple. Two user accounts and the ability to switch between them. Debian had a weird issue where if I logged on as user 1 and tried to run something as admin it would prompt for the admin credential of user 2. While I knew both passwords, I couldn't live with the simple flaw. I installed 5 distros today that died and refused to start after the first set of upgrades. One after another, I ruled out distro after distro and not the little distros, I am talking the bigger names. At 8pm, I returned to Nutyx by 9pm, I was done. There were a few things that slowed me, no way to add a second user via GUI so I did it by command line. The updates from New Zealand are slow, (15 minutes for the kernel update). Some of the apps that I like aren't in cards, but I can get them from flathub. This distro rocks, keep up the incredible work.
