What is current best OS and desktop

[parry]

I find that Mobian with Phosh works well for me, but my phone needs are very basic. (Also I run Debian-based distros on just about everything else so I'm very familiar with that OS.)

Hi Zeb, given your experience, could you possibly help me understand what the settings in the powermanagementprofilesrc file of my Manjaro based pinephone mean.  I am trying to see the screen, but it dims quickly
Here are the settings.. and my questions beside them
[AC]
icon=battery-charging

[AC][DPMSControl]     >> I presume this is the display power management signal
idleTime=60               >> What units are these
lockBeforeTurnOff=1    >> Exactly what does this mean.

[AC][DimDisplay]
idleTime=30000          >> So I have to presume this is the amount of time that it takes to dim the display, Again what units is this in
                                 >> and do I have the correct interpretation


[AC][HandleButtonEvents] >>Looks like some event handler
lidAction=1                      >> Hmm, I dont have a lid on this device
powerButtonAction=128    >> OK, what is this and how does this affect my device
powerDownAction=16       >> Same question here

[Battery][SuspendSession] >> This looks like the time it takes to suspend without any activity
idleTime=300000              >> Again, what units is this in
suspendThenHibernate=false  >>> Exactly what is meant here ?
suspendType=32              >> Even more obscure

[LowBattery]
icon=battery-low

[LowBattery][BrightnessControl] >> I assume this controls the brightness when the battery is low
value=30                                 >> some ill-defined value since it is not referenced to anything

[LowBattery][DPMSControl]  >> I am getting confused here
idleTime=30                       >> Units ?
lockBeforeTurnOff=1           >> Seems it locks the screen before it turns DPMS on

[LowBattery][DimDisplay]   >> How is this related to LowBattery Brightness control ?
idleTime=30000                 >> Confusing units

[LowBattery][HandleButtonEvents] >> Got me here  -difficult to interpret this
lidAction=1                       >> What lid ?
powerButtonAction=128     >> Hmm, looks like 2**6 but what does it mean
powerDownAction=16       >> Another confusing paramter.  What does it do ?

[LowBattery][SuspendSession] >> We already have battery suspend session above what is this ?
idleTime=300000
suspendType=1

Any help in deciphering this melange would be really appreciated, Coz, I cant see the bloody screen. Why oh why does Manjaro not have a screen brightness setting in the UI ??
