Looking at #lightweight #Linux distros and window managers. I already know I like #CrunchBang and its standard #OpenBox from when I last daily-drove Linux, So #CrunchBangPlusPlus and #BunsenLabs are obvious first picks, and have already made it onto my #Easy2Boot / #Ventoy #LiveUSB, but I've also peeked at #Nobara and decided to try it on for size as well.

Looking at a few other window managers, I was pretty impressed by #AwesomeWM and have also heard good things about #FluxBox.

All will suit my needs more or less equally (and any can be modified or switched), each just have unique flavors, quirks, and footprints.

@FlashMobOfOne I'll do you one better. I'm uninstalling #Windows wholesale, because I have finally lost interest in harboring corpo malware/gov #spyware on my devices intentionally anymore, which doesn't seem to offer any valid advantage itself over other systems anyway.

#windowsupdate, #msstore, #msdefender, search app, #edgebrowser, shell-embedded ads, nonstop logging and telemetry, things just refusing to function reasonably because Windows knows that it's a day that ends in "Y" -- Windows ceaselessly masturbating itself in various elaborate ways finally ran out my last iota of sanity.

In my assessment, the point of me having my computer was for me to use it, not just to have it sit there wasting time touching itself — and galavanting in the background with my system resources as if it had worse ADHD than me while I seethe and reach for the #ProcessHacker on my taskbar that I've kept perpetually open with Admin rights for most of the last decade (along with #ResMon and #TaskMgr; in order to combat Windows' defensive strategy of gaslighting the user about what it is or isn't doing) — instead of actually doing what I tell it to.

Anyway, enough about bad operating systems. Anybody happen to feel any particular preference between #CrunchBangPlusPlus (#!++) and #BunsenLabs #Debian? Haven't decided yet which I'm settling on (I have them both loaded on a #liveusb using #Easy2Boot / #Ventoy), but I was a daily driver of og #CrunchBangLinux back in the day.
