"trust me when I say there are some softwares out there I wish they would make for linux such as East - tec eraser, CCleaner and O&O Defrag. [/size]
Regarding:
East - tec eraser, depends to what standards you want to clean disk/files, HD and/or SSD, and if you intend to re-use the disk..??, take a look at "DBAN"
or give it to a 5 year old they can destroy anything.. ;D
CCleaner, nearest I have used is "Bleachbit" in the Synaptic package manager.
O&O Defrag, well there's many a debate on Defragging Linux, general consensus, typical day to day user's not necessary... But if you want to:
Defragging:
To check fragmentation:
[/size]
Code:
sudo e4defrag -c /<location> check
To Defrag:
[/size]
Code:
sudo e4defrag -v /<location> defrag
In relation to your general comments/observations...

I had been a long time windows user, since Win 2.11, although dropped Win ME after a week, stuck with 98, then used XP from 2001 till 2014, [/size][size=1em]avoided Vista/Win7[/size]
Started to try and use Linux in 2014, and many, many trials later I settled on Linux Lite, and never looked back,
[size=1em]but my usage is probably different than yours.?? (( I do still have an image of my "N-Lited XP" available in VBox ))[/size]
[size=1em]For me, It is stable, it's lite on resource, no bloat or eye candy, and it covers 99% of what I need
If I could get a MS Visio replacement, it would be 100%, nearest I have found is DIA
