Just installed Antix Linux on my aging ThinkPad today. Really impressed about the RAM usage about 360MB of RAM used before launching a web browser! Thank you for the video! You are a new Linux youtuber to me, I will be exploring your channel and seeing what other videos you have!
MX Linux is amazing super fast on old laptops, just superb
I use Slackware for years now because it is totally adapted for my needs. It is very lightweight, fast and stable. I use it for my desktop and also headless server.
Glad to see MX Linux and AntiX Linux here haha. Watching this video from a Thinkpad with MX Linux 23 =)
The real answer is Void Linux with a tiling window manager. But it's not everyone's cup of tea.
That pre install firefox thing is so true. Always uninstall the browser in your linux machine use deb version of chrome or firefox, you will be surprised.
I have had such productive 7 years of enjoyment using Manjaro as a daily driver, I am not a distro hopper. But I do spin up VMs of other distros to explore and keep current. I love listening to your narration. Thank you so much for the human touch and for all your channel offers 💙
Linux Lite can be downloaded with different from GA Kernels, and that saved a very old machine I have that refused to install anything with current kernels. And it's light and beautiful too. Plenty of very straight and useful tools. I came very impressed.
I came to see the video looking for antix to be the top 1 and you didn’t disappointed Antix is my day to day distro and I love it
3:00 Snaps aren't slower than flatpaks. Both of them are pretty much the same speed. Since all of them are native binaries. But in very rare cases, a distro will have a package optimized for certain configurations and that MIGHT give some users better performance. But not always.
Hi Tex, Thanks for your Video. I agree. Think would be helpful to include a LIST with all distros or - at least - to show them on the video sequencer.
Timestamps... WTF?
LXLE and EndeavourOS with either Sway or BSPWM are also really good lightweight distros.
i really love the unique choices you got there and i really take them into consideration when changing to linux, maybe a month from now
no memory usage, no cpu usage, no disk space usage. why s t lightweight? I believe you bro
Can we get a "Top 10 Most Stylish Distros"? I know it would be somewhat subjective but I think many people are looking for something elegant because they feel it's an important part of the experience.
I decided to try Bodhi in my netbook, with its single core processor (Celeron 743 1,30 GHz). Luckily, the netbook has 4 GB of RAM and a 240GB SSD. The performance is the best I've ever seen in this netbook, and I dare to say it's actually better then the Windows 7 Home Basic it originally came with. I managed to download an 720p60fps video and the netbook successfully played it. Also managed to play 1080p videos fine, but 1080p60fps can't be played. Still, the netbook boots fast, opens programs fast and rarely freezes, even with some few programs open at the same time. The battery life also increased from around 3 hours to around 4 hours, and I can make it last longer by lowering the screen brightness. I will maybe try AntiX later, but I'll probably stay with Bodhi.
16:11 . . . I didn't see that one coming I laughed so hard imagining a potato running an OS🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣! You really got m there😆
Lint Mint is the main distro for now... This is a good place to start if you are a Windows or Mac user.
