The idea is to give the disadvantaged an opportunity to gain digital skills. I did have some documentation - a rough guide to running lubuntu etc but Google has decided to not let me have downloadable files from https://sites.google.com/site/ianbruntlett/ any more. I've recently written a rough guide to using Ubuntu (15 pages long) but it isn't online at the moment.

Cool! Good for you. Sounds like a great plan.

Should come straight across no worries then.

Lubuntu 18.04 used LXDE. Lubuntu 20.04 uses LXQt. But they look and
work similarly. Has the virtue of familiarity.

I used to use a fabulous tool called XMarks. Synched (and sorted and
de-duped) bookmarks etc. between Firefox, Chrome, IE, Safari, what
have you.

Now I use Chrome's tools for Chrome, Mozilla Sync with Firefox and
Waterfox, and they're drifting apart. I must test out some
alternatives.

But it's worth turning on -- it's good to have a backup of this stuff,
even if there's only 1 computer.
