KDE Plasma has been getting so much more efficient with every release that you can almost recommend it for low-end systems.

I remeber using plasma on a weak 2016 160 usd laptop with no issue in 2018, I can only imagine how much better is now

lol my laptop is from 2012, i run gnome and kde easily. windows usually needs a round of debloating every update to be usable.
