Also, are malware-free cursor applications still a thing? Or does it make me an old man to want to do it in 2023?

That's just it: I AM using Flatseal and as far as I can tell it gave me all of the confirmation that it's been installed correctly and works...and nothing else. No functionality changes

As for KDE Plasma, a cursory search seems to indicate that it's not compatible with Lubuntu, which is kind of a deal breakers unless one of the compatible ones is as lightweight AND as stable AND as newbie friendly as Lubuntu, which would be a minor miracle IMO lol

I think you can try your luck with either Nobara or Bazzite, they are very user-friendly. I find Nobara more user-friendly, but Bazzite is an immutable distro, so it is naturally more stable, more secure, etc.

I use Nobara KDE, and the idle RAM consumption is of around 1 GB.
