So this Lemmy place is pretty awesome, and I see it growing by the hour! Just like others link external sites for content here, we should really also share Lemmy content to external (e.g. Reddit, Twitter, etc.) to show others where the users are going now....
Anyone know minimum requirements to run Ubuntu. The main flavor as well as any other you want to share. Also, suggest any other distrio for a 15 year old laptop. Thanks.

My Laptop at work is Latitude 7430 and i'd like to switch from Windows to Linux (any distro is fine). Now i have tried Ubuntu, openSUSE and Manjaro to no avail, due to the insane lag on the integrated screen. When running on the Live ISO over USB everything seems to be working fine, the screens attached to the docking station...

does anybody use this for a normal home desktop setting? How is performamce? I was looking at this to use my server to host my desktop OS. so i can just back it up together with my normal backup

Hello, recently joined after 14 years on reddit, not sure if anyone would recognise me but I was mildly active in Linux subreddits, especially /r/linuxaudio....
I would prefer something based on Debian, like Ubuntu or PopOS, but I'm open for other suggestions as well, as I'm looking for a distro to daily-drive on my new Framework laptop.
i would also say mint. i personally used manjaro, and have not found major problems using it as a non power user. most software you would need as a standard user are persent in the build in software center, which is pretty easy to use

Any interest in a Linux audio community?
