I've found Ubuntu MATE to be a pretty good distro for me or other experienced users, but it's too unstable. Too many anomalous issues to recommend to someone like Sasha. So I won't even consider Ubuntu MATE for this build. I actually kinda get annoyed with this distro on my personal laptop and will likely switch to Debian.
Will continue to lean slightly toward Debian 9 :)
I'd always move /tmp to tmpfs when the amount of system RAM allows it. Always. Why bother putting something temporary on the drive when you absolutely do not have to? I can think of no reason at all to leave /tmp on the drive.
Yeah, good idea re. swap partition. I should probably set it up on the SSD since it's a 960 GB drive and can spare the space a bit more than the 240 GB m.2.
Cheers!
