Does GNOME still as heavy as it always had been?

so I wasn’t on GNOME for so long last time was with ubuntu 16 or 18 I don’t remember I was avoiding GNOME cuz I have this old laptop and I want it to be fast right, but I kinda missed GNOME. So for people who are using it today is it still heavy and take 3 GB of your ram or it’s faster and lighter now?

hi,

3Go !? NO, at start alone is more 700…800Mo

there is Manjaro minimal GNOME. I do believe that is easy on the resources.

Minimal provides a basic desktop environment with no additional software packages pre-installed.

you can give it a go?

I’m living on GNOME(minimal) with 4GB of RAM, just peachy on my end.
