    1 project | /r/linux4noobs | 9 Dec 2023
    when I started out, I used red hat, Suse linux, and then finally I jumped to Ubuntu, when they killed gnome and rolled out their new GUI later, I switched to Ubuntu Mate, with xfce alternatively installed. And then later came MINT. which is based on ubuntu anyway.

  • Who needs Ubuntu when you have MATE
    1 project | /r/linuxmint | 2 May 2023
    Linux Mint has its advantages, but your title doesn't make sense when there's Ubuntu MATE.
  • Fail To Download on Old Windows Vista PC
    1 project | /r/Ubuntu | 16 Apr 2023
    (btw: since the PC is older I would reccommend Ubuntu Mate or Xubuntu as those come with a lighter Desktop)
  • Another newbie at Linux
    1 project | /r/Ubuntu | 8 Apr 2023
    You can always change desktops later to Cinnamon or MATE or XFCE. If you want to try those desktops on your USB drive, you can download Ubuntu MATE or Xubuntu and try them on USB, just like you're currently doing.

  • What Linux Distro Should I Use For Terrible Laptops?
    2 projects | /r/blender | 25 Feb 2023
    My experience has been that Ubuntu's Gnome DE is somewhat less suitable to older computers than Ubuntu "official flavors" with lighter DE's -- Ubuntu Budgie (Budgie DE), Kubuntu (KDE Plasma DE), Ubuntu MATE (MATE DE), and Xubuntu (XFCE DE) -- all of which use somewhat less resources than the Gnome DE.
  • Change from Windows
    2 projects | /r/linuxquestions | 7 Feb 2023
    Consider looking at several of the Ubuntu official flavors -- Kubuntu (Plasma DE), Ubuntu Budgie (Budgie DE), Xubuntu (XFCE), Ubuntu MATE (MATE DE). I wouldn't bother with Lubuntu (LXQT DE) unless you need a lightweight distro, because the LXQT DE is not as mainstream or well-supported as the others.
  • Planning to migrate from Windows to linux and dont know what distro to use
    2 projects | /r/linuxquestions | 6 Feb 2023
    Based on recent experience helping a handful of friends move from Windows to Linux, I suggest starting with an official Ubuntu flavor (Ubuntu Budgie, Kubuntu, Xbuntu, Ubuntu Mate) 22.04 LTS release, picking which ever desktop environment appeals to you. Official Ubuntu flavors are the Ubuntu OS layer with standard but different desktop environments.
