What's /g/'s thoughts on Xubuntu?
My go-to for low-end/older devices. Ubuntu Gnome for high-end/newer.
>>55050691
It's what I usually recommend for people to get into linux
>>55050816
why not ubuntu?
>>55050869
Unity's search bar/program manager sucks and so does the mouse acceleration. Otherwise it looks nice.
>>55050691
Works nice and looks nice.
>>55050958
How's the memory usage?
>>55051005
Around 550mb of my 8gb.
>>55050691
One of the finest *buntu derivative distribution
>>55050691
great distro to get into linux that isn't shit like mint or bloated as regular ubuntu.
I use it in my laptop and even though I want to try other I just keep posponing reinstalling because it's fucking comfy.

Ubuntu MATE
>>55050869
Why not Ubuntu mate? It's more like windows imo so it's easier to adjust to.
My goto distro tbqhfamalam
Doesn't work well with dual monitors like Ubuntu does.
I'd still be using it if I hadn't given Kubuntu another shot and found it more appealing.
As far as a light setup, though, it's a damn good choice.
>>55050691
It's just Ubuntu with the XFCE desktop.
Their application collection is the worst desu.
Screen Tearing: The Distro
>>55051425
Change the wm
>>55051461
Is the wm different from the entire dm? If so what would you recommend?
>>55050691
>Xubuntu
Not using glorious arch
2016+0
>>55051488
The wm is just what manages the windows, the desktop environment stays the same
Also you don't need to replace your wm, you can just use compton together with xfwm4
>>55050691
It was my first distro. Bretty gud for first time linux users. Why would you care about /g/'s opinion?
>>55051512
I use both currently
>>55050691
Running it right now on an upgraded R60 with a t7400 c2d and 4 gb of ram. breddy gud so far.....
This picture is my xubuntu desktop like 4 months ago. Still use that theme and icon pack.
Xubuntu got me hooked on Xfce. No DE quite like it.
>>55052779
>tfw i found that icon theme but it utterly fucks everything up in my panel and I'm too lazty to fuck with it.
>>55050869
Because Ubuntu is too far from linux now!
only question is on , not working
my only question is on a not working dropbox icon
>>55050691
I didn't like it, I had screen tearing when watching videos or even just scrolling on webpages. Switched to Ubuntu instead and I'm happy.
>>55050691
Best ready to go distro.
>>55051580
Looks nice. What theme/icons are you using?
>>55050691
Xfce+Ubuntu
Really fast but compton is a requirement.
Really simplistic, in fact far too simplistic for my taste.
I would definitely use it on a laptop but on a desktop just nah. Would rather use something like Unity or Gnome.
>>55053260
paper gtk and icon theme
is there any important difference between Xubuntu and Mint xfce?
>>55054070
One of them is shit, the other one is shittier.
>>55050691
I moved from the *buntu systems to Debian. I now realize that *buntu is debians retarded cousin
>>55054070
Yes. Mint is objectively inferior
