XFCE (Mate's window manager) is nice if one wants to dig in and customize. I use it on my Debian 12 install (13" Macbook Pro from 2010). I only mention it because that's another beauty of Linux- the freedom to do what you want to your OS. I built mine from a basic install, piece by piece, and it's blazingly fast on that old machine. Definitely not something new Linux users will do (and vanilla Debian is probably not the best distro to start with for them), but just an example of what they could eventually do.
That's true about XFCE on Debian, however Mate on Ubuntu isn't something you have to fiddle with. I used to run Debian with the Mate desktop, but I kept having issues with USB devices not working unless I updated permissions and decided to switch to Ubuntu.
It's the same with secondary hard drives as well, with Debian, as I found out. Not for those new to Linux, as I stated, but I just wanted to mention the possibilities for those who like to get their hands dirty. I always suggest Manjaro, Mint, or Ubuntu to those who want to try Linux out, and suggest that they stick to vanilla installs.
