Mint won.
>>107005368>Mint wonHooray!
>>107005368what a cutie pie
>>107005368does her bush smell like mint?
>>107005368I look like that. Can someone draw a little thinkpad sticking out of the bag?
Mint is on the long list of distros that would rather you download the unofficial Chrome flatpak than the official Chrome deb. This matters more for Mint than other distros on account of their demographics. This is concerning.
Mint is irrelevant.Ubuntu > *
>>107005519better
>>107005513are you mentally ill perchance
>>107005555What I said is not very complicated bro.
>>107005368>Mint wonBut Israel still exists.
>>107005513what does unofficial chrome flatpak do better than firefox?i do not want flatpaks unless its something nice
>>107005630That is even farther away from what I said than the other guy got.
>>107005484imagine the smell
>>107005513no idea where you got that from considering Mint disables unverified flatpaks by default
>>107005368pufferfish wit da big ass lip
Ill tell you who didnt win. Imbred.>just another album before my real life begins
>>107005468<3
>>107005368i tried LMDE on my server and it was a big struggle. im goin to Debian
>>107005971man, i have to avoid mint due to reflux
>>107005513So you'd rather add a Google repository to your PC than downloading a sandboxed version that can be updated and removed without even needing root?
>>107006428/threadMint lost. Yay.
>>107006428>Mint>server
>>107006458I'd rather use a piece of software as compiled by its developers than some random MITM yes. That's part of why I use Windows.
>>107005660i recognize that would rather you pattern but are you being ? about it
>>107006717anon are you having a stroke?
>>107006724stop stroking me silly
>>107005368Mint is a joke compared to CachyOS
>>107006458>muh rootNobody has shared a computer with another person in like 20 years. Also xkcd 1200 yada yada.
>>107006744Different use case. Cachy is what you put on your high end gaming pc, mint is for your laptop fleet and random fucking around computers.
>>107006744>[distro] is a joke compared to [meme-distro]What did he mean by this
>>107006771Mint is the meme distro, it's a distro for grandmas
>>107006688Chrome cannot be compiled unless it's by the developers. It's proprietary.Also, Google could push updates to any package in your machine and break shit. It's asinine to stick with random deb files and random repositories when sandboxes packages work better.
>>107005368What did Mint win?
>>107006892fuck your sandbox bs, it doesn't work better at all it introduces tons of random shit ass issues
>>107006898second place on distrowatch behind CachyOS, the distro people should be using instead
we can see here how natural the cachy shilling is on /g/
>>107006855Maaaaaan, Anduin quickly went up to stand among the giants real fast! Too bad it's Uboonga-based.
>>107007056>Too bad it's Uboonga-based.The telemetry is stripped out, what's the issue?
>>107005368I'm not sure, my laptop with mint randomly closes tabs when I click on the touchpad slightly towards the center.It doesn't do it if I use a mouse, and I have all touchpad gestures off but it keeps doing it
>>107007056>Anduin
>>107008498OOMs, I have this problem with every distro based on Uboonga, saying so because I tested Mint and Zorin, the so called beginner-friendly distros that gave me nothing but headaches. Any other distro such as Debian, Endeavor, Fedora and Tumbleweed never had such problem
>>107005368context?>insert confused pepe image here
>>107008825Did you give LMDE a try to see if it's really the Ubuntu base that was causing it?

cinannamon is fucking ugly
>>107005368i want to sexually reproduce with mint chan
>>107012246Elaborate>>107011830You are ugly.
>>107012875cinnamon looks kind of lightweight but it's actually a gtk bloatware and eats shittons of ram like a fucking whale. i would rather than install debian with lxqt.
>>107012947>Uses a DElmao
>>107012960>he never controls entire system in tty onlyngmi
>>107006855>distro for grandmasWhat does grandma distro mean exactly? Just doing its job, beign easy to use and not constantly breaking?
>>107013032Being able to do nothing but use a web browser
>>107013050pretty sure you can install whatever you want on something based on debian like mint, so i dont really see your point.
>>107013050What things can't you do on mint you can do on other distros?
>>107013086If you want to run a server use debianIf you want to customize you computer use archIf you want to optimize your computer till you go insane use gentooIf you hate yourself use ubuntuIf your gay use FreeBSD or OpenBSDMint is just a waste of space in the wide world of distros

>>107013101what if i run fedora on my desktop?
>>107013144Then use one of the options I named?>>107013152Mint mogs fedora
>>107012947Mr. Charty, what about IceWM's RAM consumption?
>>107013175>fork of a forkkEk
>>107008659left click = selectmiddle click = closeright click = options menuthat's the default everywhere, change your touchpad settings if you don't like it
>unobtrusive>intuitive>just workswhy do these things make Linuxfags so mad? Is it because Linux could actually become popular and would stop being their personal toy?
>>107013231and by default everwhere I mean things that use standard libinput, I'm pretty sure things like GNOME and KDE change that out of the box
>>107013175>Mint mogs fedorahow?
>>107005368how can mint compete with feet?stay home white man
>>107005368Good os but thats a shit waifu
>>107005368What did mint win?>>107006990Oh, so they won the special olympics
i dislike chinkt.shit kept breaking left and right, switched to slackware and i have had no major complaints so far
>>10701310197-Year-Old Anon Still Serves Their Linux the Retarded Fashioned Way you could do all of thethings mentioned with any linux distro, besides ubuntu ofc
Use case when Debian exists?
>>107013032To be considered a grandma linux it needs to be able to run on a mid grade laptop from 2008.
>>107013032Mint is a scrub-friendly distro, and it feels familiar enough for Windows users. I installed Mint for my mom so she could use her old shitty laptop and she never realized it wasn't windows. Unless you're in web development or something like that, you wouldn't need anything past Mint. You can edit documents, you can watch youtube, and it comes pre-packed with Flatpak you won't miss your old Windows apps.It does everything it needs to with minimal complexity, and that gets the "i use arch btw" crowd rowdy because you're not allowed to enjoy life.
>>107006855Grandmas will inherit the earth. Now sit down and eat your cookies
>>107016661I think this is the first i've ever seen a post deleted for breaking that particular rule.
>>107013099the people that post shit like that have never actually used other distros, they just typed "linux gaming" into google and installed the first result that popped up
>>107017068>DebianUse case when Ubuntu exists?
>>107017752>UbuntuUse case when Debian exists?
For my linux VMs I use Ubuntu since it's officially supported by Microsoft.
>>107017787>DebianUse case when mint exists?
>>107017787>Debian>Use case when Ubuntu exists?
>DebianServers and Desktop threads>UbuntuWageslave environments where the mid-managers are smart enough to drop windows but too dumb for any other Linux distro>MintIt just werks ootb, you need to do some minor troubleshoot for some packages but you can do pretty much whatever you want. Also, no snaps. The only issue is that many packages are a little old when XX.2 or XX.3 finally release. And a final complain is why Mate instead of KDE? Cinnamon and XFCE make sense but Mate?
