Token Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 (edited) That would be CentOS If anyone suggested Ubuntu as being the most lightweight then they have no idea what they are talking about, Ubuntu is the most user-friendly distribution and it's designed to make it easy for windows users to switch to linux but it's definitely not what you want to run on a server (I have only seen people using Ubuntu on their laptops) EDIT: the minimalist versions of CentOS are not user-friendly at all and it's not worth bothering with it, the differences are too small to notice, it's best to go with whatever you feel comfortable with Edited January 29, 2020 by Token 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
