Awesom thank you. I will update if I run into any trouble

Thank you. I feel so stupid but I am grateful to know this.. Hopefully can use codespaces extension and do my programming assignments in my IDE again!

Wait a minute, there is a VSCode IDE for Linux? I thought VSCodium was the Linux fork of VSCode.. I try keep my system as light as possible because it makes compiling APKs with buildozer faster and in the past with windows I even had my computer freeze up during the process

To be honest I am getting along quite well with Xubuntu at the moment, if everything keeps going this smooth I might just leave it as it is..

Thank you. I will check it out before making a final decision.. as long as I can have a stable system that can do my programming tasks efficiently I will be happy

I guess XFCE is the way to go if I want to be as lightweight as possible?

I just compared the specs now for the first time... LMDE is just as efficient on resources as Xubuntu is... I will probably end up switching sooner or later. Thank you

Awesome! Mint would be my choice if I had a bit beefier computer

Hi everyone I had to do a bit of back and forth to solve a problem I had with my WiFi failing to reconnect automatically sometimes on Xubuntu (Ubuntu 24.04), and since I found the solution, I would like to share it for anyone else in the future browsing the forum. I do realize that there was a...

Thanks that is good to know. I am happy where I ended up though Xubuntu isn't bad at all

I liked mint too but Xubuntu can do more intense tasks with less ram.. I was looking into Lubuntu aswell but their official website was down so i stayed away. My vlc problem was fixed by uninstalling from the GNOME Software application manager. It was included with Xubuntu 23.10 (even though it...

I am doing an online programming course. On windows I used to be able to use VSCode to do my assignments in (using codespaces extension), sadly on Linux there is no support for VScodium (I can't even find the extension), so now I have to do my assignments in my browser... That is the only...

I was going to wait before I upgraded Xubuntu from 23.10, but I let my curiosity get the better of me and upgraded to 24.04 today. I had vlc installed before upgrade, after upgrade it wouldn't run when I tried opening an MP4... So I uninstalled from terminal and got a message back saying vlc not...

True, but we can make them work for it at least

My thoughts exactly

I think Windows would be ok if you run a good debloater like Raphire's one, and have at least 16Gb Ram on a quad core CPU. Just remember that with almost every copy of windows that has existed up to Windows 7 there has been revealed to be "unintentional" back doors built in... So by Linux being...

Thanks, I might check it out if I really start missing it too much

Thanks, I did have that for a while when I was still on VMs, I tried to stay purely on Linux but because of performance issues sharing my ram across 2 OSs I found myself going back to Windows. Now that I am running Linux natively my computer is at least twice as fast as when it was when I was...

Worked out great. Thank you!

I installed on Xubuntu (Ubuntu), so thank you very much! I have to run to the airport but I will check it out if it works when I get back. This looks promising
