I found out that xubuntu spams users including me, which to me is a no go.
I’m looking for a linux based ad free distro that lets me work with libreoffice, vlc, tbb, transmission, okular, pdfarranger, hexchat, gimp and ocr.
I’m going to use it to edit text, watch movies, download multimedia, chat and edit audio with audacity.
it’s not going to be a server and I’d like to work with the terminal as much as possible. At the same time, I’m a newbie.


I need to use one of these https://github.com/Skyedra/UnspamifyUbuntu not to get an invitation to join ubuntu pro each time I upgrade.
this never happened before. To me this is invasive, but otherwise it has worked well so far.
according to the github readme, you can just run
sudo pro config set apt_news=falseto disable thoseif you have things set up the way you like on xubuntu, it’s maybe worth it to just do that rather than start fresh
