I have a very cool Core 2 Duo laptop here that runs Linux Mint.
And it is pretty aweful. Would love to put Fedora Kinoite (Atomic KDE) on there, manual upgrades on shutdown, minimal set of apps.
But I dont know how well Plasma works on such old hardware. It is pretty bloated and messy sometimes, Dolphin and plasmashell are my biggest worries (the whole panel and widget stuff is sooo complex).
Has anyone tried Plasma?
An alternative would be LXQt with KWin once 6.1 comes out and it has full Wayland support.
11th gen is just a few years old. Very different to trying to run something on a Core 2 Duo which is probably close to 20 years old.

Fair enough. I may have missed the old qualifier wh3n I posted earlier.
