Which distros are energy efficient? I have a capable desktop, and I mean to push it, but I don’t want to be using energy if it’s not necessary. I’m not looking to rescue an old laptop, for example.

I hear CachyOS is fast. Does that translate to energy efficient?

(Does the OS even matter that much for efficiency?)

    So I do suggest you get some sort of energy monitor plug for your desktop and realize that it probably already uses less power than you think it does. I was very surprised at the efficiency once I did that.
