    It seems your machine has 4GB of RAM, in which case you can run KDE (for example) quite comfortably and don’t necessarily need a lightweight-focused desktop environment. So I’d say to go with a popular distro, as the other comment suggested, and not a niche one. Then pick the DE you like from videos/screenshots.
