Debian won, I’m trying it first. So far so good, using KDE because Arch ran pretty well with it, but will likely try i3 if this gets slow. Side note: This is the first distro I’ve tried that shows accurate colors on my laptop! I’d resigned myself to always having a slightly washed out, slightly cool color palette. Not anymore! It looks normal!

If you decide to give i3 a try, I recommend this repo as a sane starting config: https://github.com/shreyas-a-s/debian-i3
