I'm new here.

I am new to the world of Linux. I am very interested in this operating system. My computer has the following specifications:
Processor: i3_12100F
RAM: 8 GB
SSD disk space: 1 terabyte
I just realized that Trinity and Plasma differ in that Trinity is lightweight. Guys, please tell me which version of Q4OS Andromeda is better to install on my computer?

Welcome to the forum

We recommend you to install Plasma version definitely. Just download the default option "Q4OS Andromeda, Plasma, live - 64bit / x64" https://www.q4os.org/downloads1.html

Yeah, welcome.

Plasma feels more modern feeling, and your machine has more than enough horsepower. Excited to see your take on the distro.
