Hi everyone. I have an old ASUS S56C and I use it everyday for web (Firefox) and graphic design (Photoshop with Bottles, Inkscape). I have used for years Lubuntu, and it was all good with LXDE ambient, but with the latest versions it switched to LXQT and with snaps I don’t feel it comfortable anymore.

So, I’m looking for another easy weight lightweight distro, no fancy, only for Firefox, Bottles and Inkscape. I’m opened to any suggestions. Thanks in advance to everyone.

EDIT: Thank you all for your time and answers. I’ve read them all and I think I will start with Debian with LXDE. Thank you all again.

    Arch is more cutting edge and thus less stable in very general terms. And is would be a learning curve for someone used to Debian based distros.

      Everybody keeps saying that.

      But when I used Ubuntu/Debian and it had a major bug in the software that I used, which made it completely unusable, I had to wait for half a year for the next release which included the bugfix. But then it also included new bugs in other things… It was mostly broken at any point in time, bUt At LeAsT iTs sTabLe
