 Ubuntu is fine, before moving to qubes I would switch Ubuntu to Debian.

Qubes let's say it's paranoid mode.

 I second this - try Debian or Debian/Proxmox before going Qubes.

 The server I got is debian with proxmox so it'll be easy to set that up on my laptop too

 I think it’s the best lightweight solution.

In the vein of Qubes, Tails is also a fun derivative to play with if you haven’t. That’s more recommended for USB boot, but on secure machines virtualization of it is good.

 Alternatively, could keep Ubuntu as host OS and use Qubes in a VM.
