[07:57] <chraso> hey guys, how do I upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04? And is it worth it?
[07:59] <guiverc> chraso, Lubuntu 18.04 LTS was the last Lubuntu with LXDE, and thus release-upgrades are not supported, except through re-install. See https://lubuntu.me/focal-released/ for the release notes, note last paragraph in "Support lifespan"
[08:00] <chraso> rip my lubuntu 18.04 box
[08:01] <chraso> can I retain my home partition and fresh install Lubuntu 20.04?
[08:02] <guiverc> Yep.. Openbox is the same (bionic & focal), but most LXQt configs will be new ones, thus old lxde ones are ignored so they're not an issue (even if present)
[08:03] <chraso> btw will it be same performance? my desktop is older(AMD A6 APU). Will it discount on performance?
[08:05] <guiverc> I can't give a great answer on that; however I did test Lubuntu 18.10 & 19.04 on pentium M boxes; plus pentium 4 and it worked great; better in fact than the modern XFCE (now all GTK3) but that is my subjective opinion only
[08:06] <chraso> i'll try searching on internet
[08:07] <chraso> thanks for info about 20.04
[08:10] <guiverc> just fyi, my box is ~11 years (2009; intel c2q) that I'm replying on.. performance is great
[08:17] <chraso> thanks again, bye
