Ever tried Debian? It's a lot snappier than Ubuntu, especially when running a lighter desktop-- MATE and Xfce are easiest to set up IMHO. (The one pitfall I've run into is that you do need to install from media with non-free firmware if you want Wifi to work on hardware that's anywhere near current. With hardware that's newer than ~2016 you might even need to use a pre-release installer for the "testing" release)

I have, but many years ago. It’s on my todo list to try out some more distros and Debian is top of the list. My main problems with Ubuntu are things like it doesn’t always suspend, sometimes waking up from suspend the keyboard doesn’t work, etc. Minor things, but they add up after a while.
