    I was a distro hopper for a short while, I then just decided I liked Ubuntu with LXDE desktop, been with Ubuntu since Ubuntu 11.04.

    I started out with Linux on single-core IBM Thinkpads, and gravitated
    towards Lubuntu - Ubuntu base with LXDE and lightweight apps. I got so
    used to it I used it long after I'd moved to more heavyweight systems.

    I suppose I like an old-school window manager feel. I know they've
    moved to LXQT, I think it's called? I might give it a try on an old
    Chromebook I have laying around.

    I'll have to give LXQT a look, love having a lightweight desktop, I can then add things I like, like note.
