    Yeah pretty much. Or have multiple installed and pick which to use when you log in

        Depends on your login flow. There is a session manager which normally boots up and let’s you choose. But you can also configure it to auto login and send you to the Lockscreen of your window manager.

        You can also mix login manager, window manager with desktop background managers, wallet managers etc…, in practice you can build your own desktop experience

          I know the answer is “just build it” but man I want to be able to have adm<username login under something like nemo and a terminal window only. But then have username login under full Mint Cinnamon. Would be quite dope. Just don’t feel like making it happen at the moment. I’ll have to reconfigure permissions to revoke from my standard user.

          Edit: oops you can comment out text in Lemmy? Editedit: I did it. Too me 15 minutes -.-

        It will be goofy as the config files will still stick around between desktops.

        I would runs desktop in a container or VM.
