I've officially managed to make the transition over to Lubuntu thanks to the ever-helpful @firelighter487!

 

It's so lightweight that even just with Chrome, Discord, and Spotify open, it'll consume no less than 1.9GB of system memory.

 

I love how crisp and clean the UI looks, of course I've made it look relatively close to macOS.

 

Dual-booting Windows 10 ad Lubuntu is going to be fun, I can certainly see myself using Lubuntu full-time to get away from Microsoft spying on me.

    I've been looking into Manjaro myself, KDE reminds me a lot of Windows (which I prefer).  I might start out with using bootcamp or something on my mac and then buy a dedicated SSD for the distro on my main rig.

    Looks really nice! Forgive me for being ignorant but how does dual-booting work and where can I find more information/ a tutorial on it?

    Thanks! To dual-boot Windows 10 and Lubuntu 19.04, it was a simple command inside Lubuntu that would allow me to choose which OS I wanted to boot into when I turn my PC on.

     

    First I set the boot priority to the drive that has the Lubuntu on it first, so that my PC would boot into Lubuntu before Windows 10.

    I then used the terminal inside Lubuntu and did sudo update-grub to tell Lubuntu that I have another OS drive inside my PC.

    From there, whenever I boot my PC up, it will boot into the Lubuntu drive and give me the option to boot either into Lubuntu or Windows 10. :)
