diogenes_friendlyGoat, afaik, yes, only ubuntu uses telemetry and flavors don't have it, you could install etherape, clo all internet apps and monitor the traffic, it should be 0 B, no activity.06:20

aranteHi everyone! I'm currently using Xubuntu 18.04 and I'm having some issue with the LightDM GTK+ Greeter Settings. As far as I know, it is the tool to make customization from the login screen but in some weird situation, I cannot change the background of my login screen.11:42
