I didn’t intentionally pick Ubuntu, my pc went shit and I needed to install some os and the only one I had available in a usb was Ubuntu noble.

Laptop specs: I think a 7th gen inter i5, 8 GBs of ram and (the issue) a 125 GB M2.Sata SSD

I’m not really going to play games on it, it’s one of those weird laptops that folds and can use a stylus.

So what would you suggest for something light in size and good with a stylus.

    I swear Ubuntu does something - I have run different distros in equally-specced VMs, some with GNOME, and Ubuntu by far performs the worse. Sometimes, it’ll actually take 30 seconds to respond to a simple button click.

    When I have to test builds with what’s in Ubuntu repos, I usually avoid using Ubuntu directly and opt for a derivative like PopOS (which has unfortunately fallen behind on getting to Ubuntu 24.04).
