KDE Manjaro CE
#1
While on this 2GB cheaper version with KDE Manjaro CE edition (I havent manage to buy 3GB version in time) KDE Manjaro seems very sluggish out of the box, after an upgrade it became nearly as fluid as any fdriod, but it still feels a little bit overweight for 2GB ram as it would be on any other computer running KDE while having as much ram.

As I've never used manjaro itself and I've only used KDE on computers that at least has 4GB ram which is only not sluggish when its 8GB ram I was just thinking maybe someone has some tips for tweaking it ? Or could share their experiences

I bought the 3GB convergence edition Manjaro Pinephone back in October. At that time the factory-installed Manjaro OS was so unstable as to be unusable, so I tried Mobian which I've stuck with since I use Debian and Debian-derived distributions on just about everything else. I'm sure though that there has been a lot of development and improvements in Manjaro since that time.

You might want to look at the multi-boot image that's available. Copy that to an SD card and you can try (currently) 17 different Linux distributions to get a feel for how they perform. See the thread "UPDATED: 17-distro multi-boot image for Pinephone (incl. 3GiB variant)".
