Hello,
I have been using Ubuntu Precise Pangolin for a long time. How insecure will it be after support has ended? I've always found Precise to be lighter and not as laggy as later Ubuntu Distros versions. I tried 14 once 2 years ago, but the archive manager just didn't really work well and it was a bit laggy. Although, I never tried cinnamon environment on later versions....could it possible function better?
I don't really have a reason to upgrade besides security reasons and not wanting to install all my programs again. I have many back ups of my entire OS with everything on it. Even if all the repos die.....I can instantly restore everything within 30 minutes. I have done this many times.
What version would you recommend me switching to?
Sincerely,
Zuto
