[Patrick]

Whonix-Gateway Xfce for VirtualBox uses 1280 MB RAM by default at time of writing.

lxdm works with 512mb but it isn’t logging in

display manager - lightdm, gdm3, sddm or no display manager (startx)

Whonix 15 was using lightdm. It was removed due to autologin heisenbug. [1] [2] [3] Therefore Whonix 16 is using gdm3. It is also a good choice because it supports wayland (and fits with Gnome, which Whonix might be ported to, depending on many things such as feasibility, resource use, please use a dedicated forum thread (none might exist yet, see [4]).
