    I'm looking for a new Linux distro. Been using Ubuntu for a long time, and I love the GNOME environment so much. But it's a bit too taxing on my system.

    The thing I love the most is the Activities overview, where you see all open windows and can start typing to open a new application.

    So, are there any other DEs that have this feature and also look good? Or any lighter distros with GNOME and deb? #linuxnoob

      I'm happy people want to.spend their time helping me, but it seems I was unclear about what kind of information I want.

      First and formost I want to know not what DEs exists or which DEs are lightweight in general, but if any other DEs have something similar to the Activities view, where you see all open windows and can open new ones by typing.

      Just in case that doesn't work out I want to know if other distros with GNOME and deb are more lightweight.

      Thank you again, I really appreciate help!
