Any suggestion or tips to reduce RAM usage on Lubuntu? Having looked into a few distros, I have decided to make Lubuntu my daily driver. Seems it will pull around 1GB on idle after default installation. Wanna reduce it to under 500MB. Any ideas?
Don't use desktop environment......

Well, apart from that, cause, I plan to make it my daily driver.
Yet the party continues. That's how RackNerd threads are!
Nothing is better and lightweight than lxqt, or maybe try alpine or arch.
Lubuntu already uses LXQT. Maybe, I will just begin with that and see which unused services take up RAM indiscriminately.

Imo RAM is cheap nowadays, I don't care my windows utilising 25GB, and my Linux around 9GB
It's not about not having enough RAM sticks on the motherboard. I was generally asking to make sure I can run the distro with optimal utilisation of RAM.
Desktop environment are known to support RAM well not all there are some old age style minimal resource hoggers as well.
Running Debian 12 with i3, system's been up 17 hours.
I've thought about upgrading/replacing the 8GB with 16GB, but I don't think I'd really notice the difference.
I thought about Debian as well, pretty much same as Ubuntu. But, it's just that I have been a Lubuntu user (on VM) for quite a long time now.
I use xubuntu. It is light weight, and also easy to customize to look like modern.
Btw, why do you care about the RAM usage by DE? as you are currently using Win 11? Any light distro uses much less RAM than Windows.
That is true. Coming from Windows 11, the RAM consumption will be much better on any Linux distro. I was just curious if something could be done out of the box to reduce RAM consumption further.
There's nothing lighter than LXDE + X11

For primary desktop usage, my primary suggestion is your focus should be on features and driver support of distro and DE. Like how is the performance for daily tasks, look and feel and customization of desktop environment etc.
After sometime you forget about the RAM usage, but you care more about user experience. IMO.
ok already 48 hrs and no dm .
and what is prize 19 ?
Might just go with JWM if nothing else works.
