My system is even older. Still, everything was fine until I transitioned from 20.04 to 22.04.

Why would you use Google Play Store to download/install a foss app?
We may need a new forum: when Google is RIGHT about a search.
You’ve given me some interest in Endeavor. My current installation won’t hibernate & restore.
I use xfce for as many monitors as I can plug in. It works, though more customization sounds lovely.
Looking forward to trying out AwesomeWM. Thanks for the idea!
I left windows as xp got replaced with 7.
If I were to install Windows as a dual boot, that’d probably be my choice (xp).
My current machine was a 7, but the previous owner had installed Ubuntu by the time I bought it. It’s slow enough, there’s no way I’d put myself or the computer through running windows.
Yes, I was born before the Internet was.
Wholeheartedly agree!
To really learn computers, let them dig into all the guts (hardware & software). Of course letting them choose & install their top pick OS sounds like a great way to start.
Good luck!
FreeGeek Portland has (had?) a sign: we clean windows.
All donated computers are scrubbed of previous data, tested & reassembled (if needed) & have Linux installed.
Oldest to newest hardware work fine.
Work 24 hours to take a system home. Training is free.
Edit. Adding:
They have a website & videos on how to use Mint OS (for browsing, gaming, homework & basics) for kids of all ages: FreeGeek Online
Post-installation notes rather than installation guide (as he says in the writ).
Interested in trying it, &, as others note, with Audio (as well as Video) editing/creation software.
Audacity, Ardour, Blender to name a few.
Happy to hear of others, will be doing a bit more research.
Score one (negative) for the gatekeeper!
You fail the Janus test
I’ve been using Open Markdown Notes
I haven’t noticed a synching capability…perhaps should do better knowledge of what I use …
Regardless, every few days it will drop some, sometimes all of the entry. I’ve been using it as a journal/logbook, loss is disheartening.
Just installed, Looking forward to Markor
Inspired by your mention of synch.
Last time I was looking for lightweight distros, I found antix & MX. Both are nice, lightweight debian daughters.
That was over 10 years ago. Still inclined to use them for distros to give to people wanting to exit Windows, though all the voices for Mint make me want to check it out, too.

Is it supposed to be submersible? WTF no jacks or ports?
Non upgradable SSD & RAM?
So Dell is trying to out-stupid Apple. Maybe they’ll come out with their own maps.

Works on xubuntu. Though restarts are a common solution to no connection. That’s fine, I’d rather not spend extra juice to keep them Wi-Fi tethered.
