Llevaba un rato intentando recuperar un portátil HP de 2019 con 4 GB de RAM. Probé primero con xfce pero la opción más ligera, muy usable y con una apariencia más que aceptable es sin duda CachyOS con escritorio lxqt.
Con firefox en primer arranque, simultaneando la edición de un documento en OnlyOffice y ejecutado el monitor del sistema consume 2GB de ram, lo que no está nada mal para un uso básico.
El escritorio base consume unos 800 MB.

With LXQt I have rediscovered the joys of screensavers !!
Questions for linux users:
1. I wonder why one no longer finds screensavers in modern OSes. Is it just a fashion thing?
2. With increasing adoption of wayland, I wonder if any replacements/lookalikes are in the works. I really hope so!
Does anyone have more info ?

I have to admit, LXQt is fast-becoming my DE of choice on linux.
My workflow is heavily GUI-based for most things and I really like how it allows using both Qt and GTK tools without breaking the UI.
The only thing I miss a lot from gnome is the ability to use emacs-like shortcuts throughout the os (mostly simple commands like C-f/b/a/e/n/p/d/k etc).
Anyone with solutions ?

Testing de Noctalia avec #labwc avec et sans #lxqt sur #endeavouros pour le fun de la chose.
Constat: pleins de configuration possible mais avec lxqt le tout est un peu bizarre lol (photo de droite). Noctalia va certainement mieux briller sur une installation minimale avec un compositeur et tout ce que Noctalia n'inclut pas comme environnement de bureau.
Je serais tente de l'essayer sur un Linux Mint, juste pour le fun! 🤪
A+!

I am really liking LXQt - lex-cute - desktop. The defaults are just below desirable, but with just a bit of customizing LXQt is really good.
So it is not as polished visually and features "out of the box" as Cinnamon desktop is, but it is much lighter on resources and is customizable in the ways that I'd like.
Wish I'd tried it sooner... but maybe it really hadn't found its current form until recently.

I installed LXQt desktop on my laptop, as I have been using it on a desktop for a while.
Artix by default using the Openbox window manager with LXQt instead of the xfwm4 that Devuan bundles with LXQt.
So some of the shortcut key configuration is slightly different.
Eventually, I'll get around to pairing BSPWM with LXQt, as I think that'd be fun. For right now, I'm running cortile which maximizes the windows automatically with the default I have.
For right now, I can say that LXQt is much lighter on resources than Cinnamon on the same machine. Cinnamon on Artix seemed to be much more of a resource hog than Cinnamon on Debian and Devuan based Linux systems.
But with LXQt, it just sips instead of gulps.

LXQt on Debian-based distros usually use xfwm4 instead of openbox. So increasing the number of workspaces can be done from the command line instead of a GUI setting.
xfconf-query -c xfwm4 -p /general/workspace_count -s 8 -

A few more tweaks to the LXQt desktop.
Put the menu bar at the top of the screen. Removed the start menu (mainmenu) and Quick Launch. Put the Desktop Switcher on the right side of the bar.
I am launching applications with lxqt-runner bound to a shortcut key, 'Super + Space' (so similar to default rofi or drun functionality, but the default built in tool for LXQt).
The default keyboard shortcuts for positioning windows are pretty good but assume having the numpad, which I do since I am using this on a desktop with full size keyboard.
I modified the keyboard shortcut for 'maximize window' to be 'Super + Begin(keypad)' s that the center of keypad does what I intuitively expect it to for window positioning.
Right now I feel very comfy in LXQt. There's just enough for widgets and customization to feel that it is easy to use. Just enough ability to customize, without being overwhelmed with options. It is light and quick.
