I personally installed release 2.6.17 from GetDeb into Ubuntu 16.04 Gnome on an older laptop and it has worked as well as I could expect with only 2 Gig of Ram. However, I have a very large data file and I only use AlphaVantage to update stock prices on a different machine so I am not sure about AqBanking. Perhaps others can share their experience with GnuCash on Ubuntu. While GnuCash 3.2 will be released very soon for Windows and OS X, it will take a while to get to Ubuntu, unless you are willing to compile it yourself. Personally, I am not in a hurry.
