Windows 2000 was pretty good.

Other Debian-based distros with XFCE are going to be very similar, yes.

Xubuntu is going to install Snaps if you install some software through apt, though, which imo is kind of gross. That's the reason I switched to Mint. But if you like Snaps, it's arguably a better choice.

Debian might be slightly harder to set up. However, from what I hear, it's easy enough for most people now.

If you're already familiar with regular Mint, XFCE Edition is going to have the same key bindings, update manager and driver manager, so it should be slightly easier to use.

You could try Linux Mint XFCE edition. Comes with a more lightweight desktop environment.
