Hello! So I have used linux mint for dual booting and its great! My main problem is that I have around 30 GB to spare for linux and I just run out of space pretty quickly. I wanted to ask, is there a distro that is more lightweight than linux mint that will work best with low amount of storage? I do prefer debian based distros but I am willing to try arch ones as well. Any recommendations will be very appreciated!
You could try debian itself. Choose a lightweight desktop environment and don’t install too much stuff. A distro specifically made for older computers or made to have a small footprint might help. Unless you start using it and installing several things.
Maybe shrink the windows partition to make more space or buy a larger disk.
