Back in the day, when you had a computer with slow CPU, minimum RAM or small hard drive, people made "tiny" or frugal Linux distros
that gave you a full-ish Linux but left out bloated software like KDE that ran slowly.

Is there such a frugal or tiny Linux distro for the Pinephone or Pinephone Pro that strips away resource-hogging software that
slows things down unnecessarily?
