I guess it’s time to leave Ubuntu as a new user and switch to a new distro. Ubuntu, Xubuntu, and Mint were my choice, but their base, Ubuntu, is becoming “bloated”, and turning to a latest computers’ OS. And I think it will affect its derivatives. Which distro would you suggest to switch to. I aint rich. I’m already aware of Fedora and its xfce, kde spins, Opensuse Leap and Tumbleweed, Debian and its derivatives, and Void. Are you planning to switch too.
So the bloat is on the disk, ISO file size, not on ram or performance or something?
The ISO is big because it contains programs that you can install only if you choose to during the installation process. You can opt for a minimal installation.
Ok, I see, thanks for the info, man. That’s very helpful.
