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?)

    IDK what exactly your goal is, but with distros like Arch, background services are opt-in and there’s documentation on fine-tuning the power settings.
