It's absurd that people who recommend "light" Linux distros mention DEs that are much heavier than LXQt and LXDE.

As for Wayland, I use it on a Raspberry Pi 4 (Raspbian xwayland). It works well enough, but there is some kind of bug that causes xwayland to fill the swap space at almost 100%. When this happens, I find it necessary to close applications to reduce the swap usage.



What do you mean by heavy though? Plasma is feature heavy but definitely not memory heavy.
