I have a laptop from 2014 and I’m thinking of installing Kubuntu or Arch. I don’t know much about linux but the computer is not important and is damaged so I can screw it What would you recommend? I’m thinking of something customizable (Arch) but easy to use (so Kubuntu is a good option)

If the English is not good, blame the translator 😃👍

I have the minimum requirements for both.

Edit: The computer isn’t suposed for be a daily driver. And thanks for the replies.

    with the GUI and toolset of Kubuntu

    Not entirely, for example, Discover is only good for flatpaks in EndeavourOS.

      Also not entirely ;-), for example Plasma Addons and Application Addons from KDE Store can also be managed this way. But overall I guess you are right, as its not recommended to manage (pacman) system packages with Discover. I don’t even know how to set this up, if I wanted to. Half a point goes to you. :p

        I didn’t know it handled them (I’ve never used Discover) but yeah they’re not system packages so they will be OK too.
