[04:45] <friendlyGoat> hello i'd like to ask a few things about telemetry and privacy on xubuntu? does xubuntu do any telemetry stuff i should be aware of? if there was any sort of opt out thing during installation i think i opted out but its been so long and i just wanted to make sure since i dont like sending out info about my machine. if there is telemetry in ubuntu is it only for the main flavour or does it affect others? (lubuntu, xubuntu, all

[06:20] <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.

[06:39] <friendlyGoat> diogenes, thanks for clearing that up, i looked up all the software associated with ubuntu telemetry and used a purge command and had none of them installed in the first place but i figured i'd ask here to cover all my bases, from how it sounds im good yeah?

[11:42] <arante> Hi 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.
