Niri + Noctalia on my diehard Lenovo 440S. Colour scheme is Nord. Fun fact, in my install, I don't have a graphical login screen and instead, I boot into CLI, login at CLI, and then call up Niri. Does not affect performance, I can suspend my computer, and I'm not sure if it is a bug, but after a couple of hours of the computer being suspended, it lights up and hibernates itself. I'm not going to try fix it, I think its cool.

I'm also on Niri Noctalia combo, and loving it. I also login on a TTY, no need for a graphical login. Seems like a waste of resources to keep that process running when I won't see it for the majority of the uptime.

I'm very curious to know what will be new in version 5 that they are working so hard on now that they abandoned almost all 4.x development.

    Same thing. I did not setup intending to login on a terminal, it happened by accident, then I looked at my resource consumption and I was knew this was my new mode. Nice, clean, in the background, and it just works. If you are resource limited, look into Earlyoom. Makes a world of difference in this economy. Looking forward to v5 as well.
