>>2lel xfeces is the best of the "muh liteweight" DEs tbh, yet to try openbox and window managers tho I can already predict thats a whole level of autism I can do without, same for arch tbh.
and for the most part I can agree on the sentiment that distro popularity is faddish, the only reason I rock debian is because it does what I want it to, they way i want it to.
Unrelated however, I really wanna dive into OpenBSD at some point, as I reckon it could be fun to get into after all the hurdles.
