When I bought the mini my intention was to put Kubuntu on it. However I 
had problems with the iso and happened to have a standard Ubuntu one on 
hand and I've been too lazy to reinstall. Years ago I added KDE to a 
GNOME  distro and it worked, sort of, although updates could be touchy.

The netbook that is current Mint had Lubuntu, which is LXQt. Not bad. 

I will have to say Ubuntu tones down GNOME by default. The Leap version is 
strictly meant for a tablet. I think the 'dash on dock' GNOME extension is 
the one that makes it civilized.
