Which distro and desktop environment are you using? 🤔
My dev machine uses ~800MB of ram on boot.
And that’s the best ad I could possibly write for #Linux

SuSE still exists??!
It fucking rocks too dude. It's become my new goto over the last few weeks. It's like all the good things about RPM, YaST is next level, and no RedHat BS.
They give their own enterprise linux away btw., but I'm rocking Tumbleweed and it's been rock solid stable on this hardware.
I always hated RPM so much; always felt like such an unnecessary complex mess with all the rpm database glitches, whereas the apt database is plain text and I could easily fix whatever I wanted
Though my experience was always with red hat/fedora/centos and all the derivatives. I haven’t tried SuSE since like 1999 iirc
