Former distrohoppers, where did you settle down?tet@lemm.ee to Linux@lemmy.ml – 173 points – 9 months agoWhich one(s) and why?266Post a CommentPreviewYou are viewing a single commentView all commentsWindows -> macos -> pop os -> debian -> fedora ↓ Now linux mint(desktop) slackware(laptop) arch linux(Kvm/Qemu for gaming) Netbsd(older hardware/for fun) do you get good battery life with slackware?Sorry for late reply For about 4 hours i beleive. Though it used to be longer as i have had it for over a year and the battery not like it used to be. Kde is the default desktop eviornment. It helps that its a non systemd init system so it doesnt pull as much resources on the backend since systemwide is controlled via scripts. If i were to run a lighter one such as xfce, qtile or dwm it would run longer(varies on configuration though)
