  • Multiple versions of Ubuntu have different Desktop Environments, and most use less RAM than the GNOME Shell desktop standard in Ubuntu. See https://ubuntu.com/download/flavours and https://itsfoss.com/which-ubuntu-install/ – K7AAY May 26 '20 at 22:44

The best way to answer to this question is creating a USB bootable drive with Ubuntu and make a test from the live system (=not installing anything).
