  • Do you uBlock origin installed?
    It should block ads n unnecessary stuff to save some data.

    You could filter/block images and audo/video/media(from all websites or some specific websites) if you want to save even more data.

    $image,media,important
    Adding that in your filter list would block all images and media, from all websites. You can adjust it for the specific websites that you want it to affect.



  • Thank you.

    If you haven’t tried them, I recommend giving them a try. They all have something to offer.

    I have tried them on desktop and in most cases, I did not have any serious issue with them. I was thinking which one would be better optimised for laptops.

    KDE handled things very well

    I’m on KDE now. It’s good. Was thinking whether there are any DE’s that are specifically recommended for laptops, for efficiency or ease of use.





  • best option

    Ubuntu is popular and new-user friendly. And xfce is generally lighter on resources. It’s a good choice.

    What can I do

    Almost everything.
    Some proprietary apps you’ve used from windows may not be available, but equivalent ones would be available on linux.
    Stuff like browsing the web(provided that you don’t open too many tabs, because you have low ram) and watching movies n all is quite good.
    What all things fo you intend to do on it? I think it’ll be easier to check that the things you want are there.
