Xubuntu's minimal version is also available as a separate download, a mere 2.6GB compared to the standard 4GB Desktop download, making it more compact and distinct.
Xubuntu's Minimal install is far more stripped-back compared to other options, positioning it uniquely within the Ubuntu 24.04 LTS release with a strong focus on the minimalistic approach.
Canonical is emphasizing the snap package format in 24.04, reflected in Xubuntu's inclusion of the App Center software store that solely supports snaps, despite challenges like sandboxed Firefox and user pushback.
