HolySoap Plasma hogs to many resources

I remember reading recently that Plasma is one of the leanest mainstream DEs and even leaner than XFCE now...

    HolySoap Budgie is NOT based on GNOME. It's built using GTK3 and has GNOME applications.

    Docker is a container platform and Latte is a dock which only works on Plasma. There is plank in the repository if you're looking for a dock that works with Budgie.

      I've never used linux on a PC, only for servers. This is my third day on linux and I chose Solus distro and I can say, it's really really easy. Even thought I had some minor issues, asking here brought me answers within a couple of hours. As a fairly new solus user I must say it's amazingly easy to use, would recommend to anyone that wants to switch to it.

      I am a long time windows 10 user that is fully accustomed to the Office 365 ecosystem. Solus is my first Linux and I have been using it in the last two weeks. So far, my Solus froze one time because I opened too many applications.

      I was actually eyeing for Zorin because of a recommendation from a colleague. He showed me their beautiful landing page and I was sold immediately. I can say the same with Elementary OS and Pop!OS.... Just visit their websites and you will know what I mean. They are neck-and-neck in DistroWatch ranking. Solus is more stable. But to be honest, I chose Solus also because its name sounds familiar, professional, and reliable.

      Installing Solus was a breeze in my Thinkpad. No hiccups and everything works out of the box. Challenges arisen from configuring the gestures, DE, and keyboard shortcuts. I learned that I should not try to mimic win10 UX for the sake of my muscle memory. It is important for first time users to try to understand and accept the default settings in Solus (and Linux). Yet, the process of configuring forces me to learn the terminal. At this stage, guidance from experienced users is needed.

      Office 365 in desktop is far too superior to LibreOffice. Its online version is not a fair substitute for those who relied on complicated MS Office functions and tools. For this reason, I am still dual-booting to taper-off my attachment to the MS ecosystem.
