I've been screwing around on this decade-old craptop for almost two and a half hours now, mostly in #Vivaldi, running #AeonDesktop. Battery was at 93% when I started, now at 68%.
I have it in Power Saver mode, and I noticed that Vivaldi is much more performant than Chrome in this mode. I actually had to go look to see which power mode I was in, worried that it was in Performance mode and going to eat battery.
Starting to really like this combination for anything that's not processor-intensive.
I've been checking out @Vivaldi@vivaldi.net and decided I wanted to see how it fares on something with restrictive system resources, wondering what the #Vivaldi version of a Chromebook would look like. So wiped the craptop again, installed #AeonDesktop but without Firefox, pulled down the Vivaldi flatpak, and voila. Might as well be a Chromebook.
The #Aeon Desktop's GTK4 graphics issue (making apps that include Nautilus/Files unusable) has been resolved in the snapshot I installed today.
This also goes for OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, which is where Aeon gets its packages
