I too am more impressed with LL 5.4 than Linux Mint 20.10 ! I used to use 20.10 but could not stand the CPU usage! LL 5.4 is perfect for my early 2006 iMac. Thanks to @Jerry for the hard work and dedication! :045:

I'll toss a plug...
Setting up my Full Circle system that had LL2.8 still on it when I pulled it off the shelf, will now be a print server (LOL what I'm calling it)...
--- Code: ---LL5.4 64 bit Dell Optiplex 160 (Thin) - Atom 230 1.6Ghz - 4GB-SiS 771/671 PCIE VGA
--- End code ---
LL5.4 is running GREAT just a good as 2.8 if not better. GREAT OS..
And sometime old dogs need to be taught new tricks - I pooched it setting up VNC (to many fat fingers in the way)...
But 2nd time around - yup reloaded the OS - only takes minutes and I took my advice - make a backup :55:
Then I followed, ok I copy and pasted from the Help Manual for setting up VNC (I used vi vs. mousepad) AND in minutes BINGO.. :58:
:57: GREAT OS - GREAT DOCUMENTATION!!! GREAT FOLKS on the forums :54: :54: :54:

Coincidently, I helped someone this weekend on an MS machine with a profile from scratch.
Most of the information given was how to NOT activate a bunch useless apps and "call-home", erm, "features".
When more than half the training time goes to bypass the "defaults"... That not right! ;)
(thats from the movie Galaxy Quest, a must for any StarTrek fans)

That new Lite Tweak that purges systemd logs is a very big deal! Perhaps inspired by a thread here on the Forums about it, it's really great to see attention paid to the "little things" that can cause problems down the road. It's yet another example of the creativity and imagination that goes into constantly improving this magnificent little distro. Linux Lite absolutely sings on my modest little Dell Latitude.
