@jeremy@mapstodon.space My spouse's perfectly functional and not all that old laptop hit "end of 10" in the fall and is now running #Kubuntu
We normally think of KDE as being a somewhat "heavy" desktop user interface in the Linux world, but they are absolutely amazed at the performance boost. It's like a brand new computer. :)

@jeremy@mapstodon.space Personally, the last few years I've been an #mxlinux fan, but that's just me. I know that what I choose to use isn't for everyone. And this world gives us choices and options.

@leftylabourtech@mstdn.social Yes the performance boost is an easy win! I went with Gnome here as I find it kinda closer to macOS than KDE (absolutely subjective opinion here :D). I personnaly prefer KDE. Both are great DE and both have flaws.
