I guess it’s time to leave Ubuntu as a new user and switch to a new distro. Ubuntu, Xubuntu, and Mint were my choice, but their base, Ubuntu, is becoming “bloated”, and turning to a latest computers’ OS. And I think it will affect its derivatives. Which distro would you suggest to switch to. I aint rich. I’m already aware of Fedora and its xfce, kde spins, Opensuse Leap and Tumbleweed, Debian and its derivatives, and Void. Are you planning to switch too.

    I understand why people choose to leave Ubuntu and of course am OK with it. I for example don’t like Snaps, too.

    I have been visiting and leaving Ubuntu for 15 years and now I’m back again (coming from years of Fedora).

    I wouldn’t say it’s more bloated, nor does it require more resources. But I prefer the adapted Gnome version where you can minimize windows and everything is a little less hassle (in my case configuring the printer).

    In your case, I’d try out Fedora. Its installation is quite minimal.
