Should i be exited /g/?

Currently on Windows 7, switched from all kinds of distros with Xfce, spend almost 6 years on Linux and started using Windows 7 after getting fucking sick of Xfce in January for Java and Android development.

What should i use now /g/?

Will Linux Mint get out of the stone age and start using Linux 4 at least? Will elementaryOS get their shit together and make a usable development base and not a Facebook machine?

What does /g/ recommend for the future and Linux and FOSS?

GNOME is too slow on my T61 mate, its fucking horrible to be unable to use such an awesome desktop environment because my laptop is shit.

Fuck my life.

What i wondered always was, HOW DOES Windows get away with such good performance with this level of visual effects and composition.

I NEVER EVER saw a windows resize smoothly on GNOME, like EVER, and Windows has no problems.

Now that Microsoft and Ubuntu are in bed together, you do realize your OS will be full of botnet and backdoors, right?

I have Ubuntu installed for my mother on her PC. Wondering if 16.04 will fix the few small issues she have with it, or if I should try something else on her machine to get rid of those issues.
