Somwehat related tho this topic for some perhaps... in Linux if you find Quickemu package & Quickgui the front end - you can try before you buy many different OS versions inc MacOS by auto building VMs with just a couple of clicks. I am trying out Mint lately...

I use this install on my laptop mostly for queries to the MC database residing on the MC server (a Windows desktop).

I am using this install of MC on Linux to get a feel of how it works because I may be replacing the Windows PC in my entertainment center with a Linux PC due to the ridiculously onerous Windows 11 hardware requirements.

One question I do have...

I've no qualms abut running plain ole Debian on that entertainment center PC.  But Debian supports many window managers.  Is one preferred over the other?  My requirements are that that PC runs MC well.  No other needs for that PC.

Is there a recommended or preferred windows manager under Debian?

I develop on XFCE. IMHO it's the least complicated but still competent.
