I want to find the most sustainable operating system, because computers nowadays waste a lot of energy, because of data collection and data processing. Avoiding unnecessary processes and using resources in a mindful way could reduce the CO2 output on the whole world.

This discussion grew very fast and I put all links to other platforms in the end of the blog article.

well as you can buy solar panels at $0.50/W so a 10W panel can be obtained for $5 and a raspberry pi4 only uses 2.7W while idle and 6.4W when under full load.
