From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I really like LXQt for VMs. It is lightweight and fast enough to provide a very snappy environment, even beating out something like XFCE. With LXQt I get the minimally viable desktop environment with a panel, notification handler, etc.
Though most recently I have been using XFCE specifically because its notification widget gives me more info in the preview.
Same for me. I may have the ability to use GPU pass-through, but if I'm not willing to heat up my room, I use my VM with Lubuntu.
