KDE, because I’m too lazy to switch back to XFCE, which offered every feature I already use in KDE except without the stuttering, the bugs, and the update cycle that breaks things way, way too often on a rolling release distro.
Or openbox. My old laptop has openbox, but that’s more for screwing around with EWW than doing day-to-day things.
Pretty much any distro can do everything you want. But since you liked crunchbang, consider Mabox. It’s an openbox distro based on Manjaro with a bunch of QoL improvements like super+arrow to tile a window, or their own little fork of jgmenu to expand the functionality of the tint2 panel, plus some custom ricing tools. I’m not saying it’s the best distro ever, but it might give you just the right nostalgic feels.
Technically, hippos don’t swim. They run along the ground. So if you pick a deep enough body of water, you might still have a chance.
I don’t hate flatpaks, but flatpaks require more disk space than the same apps from traditional repositories, and they only support a handful of the most common default themes. Since I only ever use older and slower computers, my disk space is limited, and I like to rice my desktop, I personally avoid them. But your use-case may differ.
Too hot, but every other time this has happened in the last several months, they’ve been able to spread dirt and gravel on top to make a temporary road.
Depending on when this picture was taken, it’s just the outermost layer that’s solid. The lava flows from underneath.
It does not run well. You can’t see the performance difference between KDE and XFCE on neofetch, but you absolutely can on on old machine.

Enable the chaotic AUR and you won’t even have to build from source.
Linux is modular, not fragmented.
Except Gnome. Fuck Gnome.
Thank you for providing an actual answer. Most of the comments in this thread are condescending as hell.
This is a popular opinion outside of Lemmy. You won’t find many lowercase “l” libertarians here though.
How important is the Windows-style desktop? If the VM is designed for one thing and one thing only, I’d pick any minimal WM that can alt-tab, say JWM, and then just add Firefox and Thunderbird to the autostart file.
Either scalloped with cheese, boiled in chicken broth until the broth boils off and the potatoes are basically already mashed for you, or my laptop.
Ultra-libertarian Jingoist? I’m as confused by that combination of words as I am the flags on the truck.
Give me an archive link and I’ll click it every time. Otherwise, almost never.
Wait, most people agree that Walter starts off as a decent man?
But… the abuse is literally baked into my original comment. DRM. DRM is the abuse. Just because you’re used to it doesn’t mean that it was ever ok.
Valve is a company whose profit model is based on DRM. They were never your friend. Thanks for proton, though.
He also got the level 155 crash today. Second person to ever beat the game.
I know this is a bit of a necro-bump, but Today I Found Out just released a video answering exactly this question: https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=ipDdWx67H9M
