it seems to be the lightest mint? looks interesting. theres also middle mate mint… hm. in terms of making media… choniest program to go on it would be csp (mayb flstudio if i actually get it). others tend to be light, like pxtone, audacity, mugen, renpy, old rpg makers… i tend to draw non resource heavy art in csp as well… so im sure its good enough… i hope.

i see. a fam member has experience with this one too.

curious if ubuntus slowness is related to the graphics. hm. i found someone running csp on mint cinnamon using playoblinux. so thheres some more points to mint, haha.

I see, I’ll try those. Debian flavour mint gets multiple reccs, hm. I knew about mint being newbie friendly. Didn’t know it has diff flavours.

I see.

I have dabbled with krita/Inkscape/gimp, so if I can’t force CSP to work than I’m fine to use em, though I’d like to keep using it.

-im very aware about linux haha! I’ve floated around it /it’s floated around me for years 'n years but I’ve never touched it myself.

By my understanding is that win 11s is a watered down walled version of win 11 for weaker machines- and that the sibling laptop has chromos, which is also a perposely limitating os also for running on weaker machines, so I assumed the thing isn’t so powerfull. Though regardless of machine power, I like my programs and UI minimal and simple (win95 boxes my belovid) I don’t like bloat or unessersary extra fancy rendering. (Idk about internal processes in terms of bulk/lightness though) i guess it is Linux and I can change the UI to anything if I beat it hard enough(?). Plasma does look appealing with the touch pen support it says.
