Really? My arch install is idling at 2.8gb. Picom (310mb), XOrg (160mb) and pipewire (140mb) are big chunks, and kitty isn’t cheap either but the rest is mainly sub 50mb services that all add up. I’m not running anything heavy like Gnome or KDE either, just bspwm and 2 polybar instances (one for each monitor).

Yeah that sounds fishy, a default KDE installation of Fedora would at least be under a gig for me
My fedora install idles at about 1.5GB.
