you can benchmark like CachyOS, PikaOS, and like Fedora or something and the results are pretty much going to be the same. you’ll see an ever so slight FPS increase on PikaOS but it’s so marginal you’d be hard pressed to notice. If a 4fps increase is important to you then sure, have at it. but for most it doesn’t really matter.

That being said PorteuX does sort of interest me as it’s based on Slackware and is something I want to try out.

Window Maker is still great, love the NeXTStep setup.

Window Maker on NixOS however is an absolute pain in the ass.

gasp you mean the VPNs that heavily advertise themselves with influencers, streamers, and youtubers are sketchy? ya don’t say…

yeah he’s in his 70s and has been using computers for longer than I’ve been alive (i’m in my 40s). the minimalist nature of it appeals to him. likes really getting under the hood of linux so to speak. says he doesn’t like the “bells and whistles” of other distros.

He figured out suckless stuff before I did and convinced me to switch to DWM and ST which I have and he was right, I much prefer those over other WMs and Terminals. He once tried Gentoo but didn’t have the patience for it.

this will make my Dad happy, he uses Slackware and I can’t convince him to use any other distro.
