@itsfoss It depends on the type of Ubuntu or Mint. There's the standard Linux Mint, which is just an Ubuntu derivative, and then there's Linux Mint/Debian, which is a direct derivative of Debian. It also depends on which daemons/applications you have installed and are running. Generalisations such as 'Ubuntu always uses more RAM than Mint' don't help anyone. It's the sum of several factors.

@opensourceopenmind @gbetous @itsfoss Again, generalisation. What deamons, desktop environments or other services are running on the distros you mention?

@potatoes_fall @itsfoss Deine Aussage untermauert meine. Your statement proves that Ubuntu does not, across the board, use more power than Linux Mint. This is due, for example, to the desktop environment. For example, the classic version of Debian uses the Gnome desktop environment as standard. As Gnome is a heavyweight, Debian with Gnome should be too.
