  • I was curious, so I took a look at what it was using. At idle, it sits at 927.4 MB, and 0.1% of my CPU (the 7700 is only a 4 core CPU). I opened and edited a Word document on OnlyOffice (I have it connected using the Nextcloud connector). It spiked to 1GB of RAM, and momentary spikes to 35% of CPU, and then back down to 0.1-0.2% of CPU. I’d say it’s worth trying at least. Worst case scenario, you delete the Docker container if it’s unworkable.

    However, I think the Community Edition is lighter than advertised.









  • I use Pop!_OS on my desktop and laptop. Prior to that, I would distro-hop like it was my job. I bought a system76 laptop and figured, why not. So, I had Pop preloaded on it instead of Ubuntu. Here’s the reason I ended up settling on Pop as my one-and-only distro.

    • Based off Ubuntu/Debian, which I am most familiar/comfortable with
    • No Snaps
    • Flatpak supported out of the box
    • Relatively rapid deployment of updated kernels (currently on 6.2.6), so no need to worry about hardware support
    • Tiling windows that are well implemented
    • Backed by a company, but one that shares the same values as me
    • Stable, even with semi-rolling release nature of it

    The downsides are that their choice of colors are god-awful. I get it, it’s their company’s colors, but I don’t think it looks really all that good on an operating system. I’ve gotten used to it, and don’t care as much anymore.
