Well deserved praise to Jerry & all the development team, for such a superb operating system  Wink Wink Wink Wink
64bit OS (32-bit on Samsung[i] netbook) installed in [i]Legacy mode on MBR-formatted SSDs (except pi which uses a micro SDHC card):
2017 - Raspberry pi 3B (4cores) ~ [email protected] - LibreElec, used for upgrading our Samsung TV (excellent for the task)  
2012 - Lenovo G580 2689 (2cores; 4threads] ~ [email protected] - LL3.8/Win8.1 dual-boot (LL working smoothly)
2011 - Samsung NP-N145 Plus (1core; 2threads) ~ Intel Atom [email protected] - LL 3.8 32-bit (64-bit too 'laggy')
2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work

[size=1em]"Dedicated support forums. With Xubuntu, you're looking at using the Ubuntu support forums for help. With Linux Lite, you have the benefit of using a dedicated forum community filled with Linux Lite enthusiasts."[/size]

[size=1em]A major reason that I do not use Xubuntu.[/size]


[size=1em]"The only downside is that it's lacking the financial infrastructure (support) seen with other distros. Should the development team hit hard times, this could potentially impact its development."[/size]

In regard to that last item (lacking financial infrastructure (support)) have you thought about setting up a 'GoFundMe' campaign to get some needed monetary support?
