[xiphos-users] Which distro should I switch to

[Byron Smith]

Well, I was a little disappointed that they dropped XFCE in 21.04 or before, but apparently KDE Plasma(?) is worth the switch. I generally stick with vanilla Ubuntu, 21.04 here (when I'm not booting into Windows 10). Thanks.

Mainly because 20.04 is LTS. For my use, I don't have much desire to upgrade every six months. I still drive a 1997 Tacoma.

I'm not so much interested in Ubuntu Studio because it is designed for media creation, but just because everything works so smoothly. Take away the media apps and you still have a great fine-tuned system that blows away all the others that people are gushing over.
