It is improved for performance .The UI is not great though Pros Easy to use , free , open source .It is really light weight , good for older hardware.If you want performance Xubunut is good to go Cons Something I really don't like is the way it looks out of the box .It look ugly and old .You have to tweak the way it looks a little bit Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Especialista comercial Insurance ### "Ubuntu con Xfce" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 March 4, 2023 Si tienes un ordenador antiguo que ya no va bien con Windows... tu solución es Xubuntu.Le puedes dar una segunda vida a esos equipos más antiguos con una distribución Linux muy ligera y basada en la conocidísima Ubuntu. Pros Todas las ventajas de Ubuntu con un escritorio muy ligero como es Xfce, una opción ideal para esos ordenadores que se hacen viejos pero todavía podemos usar con una distribución como Xubuntu enfocada a ese tipo de equipos.Gratuito, muy sencillo de instalar, con un ritmo de actualizaciones muy bueno. Cons Pocas cosas malas se pueden decir de Xubtuntu... Tal vez que hay ciertas aplicaciones que no tienen versión para Linux, unicamente para MacOS y Windows, pero eso es más culpa de los desarrolladores que de la propia distribución.
