Recently I’ve gave up Windows for Linux and installed Ubuntu with KDE Plasma desktop on my pc and laptop from 2007. It’s an i7 Intel processor with 8gb ddr ram so I thought it would be fine, but it seems quite sluggish. What distro could I use that would be faster and still fully functional? Thanks for your help in advance.
It is, no doubt. xfce is lower though. In my 10 yo system xfce uses less ram than cinnamon.
true, but he still has 8g of ram
I use both in my mint machine. I love both. However you see it, xfce is lighter in resources.
