Twister OS Sway i3
  1. A Debian based OS with a ton of useful apps like Box86 and Steam, and theme switching to look like Windows, MacOS, and many more.
    The Radxa Zero is supposed to have 70% of the processing power of a Pi 4, but I'm a bit skeptical of that claim. It does look like a great alternative to a Pi Zero, though. The idea of running any graphical desktop on a Pi Zero seems ambitious to me, but KDE is way beyond anything I'd try. I haven't had a chance to try out Twister OS yet, but I have used the Pi Zero, Pi 3, and Pi 4 with several other distributions & window managers.

    Sway is a drop-in replacement for the i3 window manager, but for Wayland instead of X11.

    For the Radxa Zero, I might look at tiling window managers, like i3, awesome, or sway. While tiling managers look quite primitive, they're small, fast, and they get the job done.
