Not for long, if the troons infesting it continue to get their way.

Everything just works "Out Of The Box", without the need to configure anything or to install extra applications. It's ready to go. Although it's very configurable, everything is set and tuned nicely by default and no unnecessary questions are asked.

Home rule

It's your computer, your rules. This is a key principle at Linux Mint. We don't collect data, we don't work against you. You're the boss. Your operating system is designed to do what you want without getting in your way.

Rock solid

With centralized software updates, system snapshots, a unique Update Manager and the robustness of its Linux architecture, Linux Mint requires very little maintenance. It works, it's safe and it doesn't break.

This is what pisses me off with the 'Linux community'

Everyone thinks their preferred distro is the best.

There are some people who just want to use a computer for various tasks and not spend all day farting around with commands in the console.

A lot of windows users will install mint for a year and switch because when they realise they're still being held back
I keep mint on my living room system for hypotix tho. Hypnotix ftw. Also my wife can't break the mint system.

It's was a meme but sadly now Mint is bad because its default distro of choice is jewbuntu. And jewbuntu has removed free as in freedom GNU core utilities from kernel and replaced them with Rust based codes with jewish MIT license.
Therefore Mint is bad and is a jewish.

You have to give to people most popular version, that makes life easy, then when they get use to Can choose distro that suits their work or specifics they do with.

Real men gown up from the boy, start from advanced version for PC nerds ... why?

I need PC as a tool to serve my needs well, not PC consuming my time to finger out shit ...

If you are not nerd, arch doesn't make sense at all ... I need PC for grandma easy to use and still better then windows.

It is completely free of cost and almost all of its components are Open Source. Linux Mint stands on the shoulder of giants, it is based on Debian and Ubuntu.

Community-centric

There is a tight bond and a great relationship between the development team and the community. We communicate with our users and constantly use their feedback to improve Linux Mint.

>If you are not nerd, arch doesn't make sense at all
True, but i think most people here are nerds. You don't have to be a 30 year old virgin wizard to figure out arch. Your grandma, however, is hopeless and mint is fine her use case.
I do think a lot of users here are capable and would benefit from arch tho. I have friends who didn't touch it for years because they thought it was too advanced for them. That's why i tell everyone i use arch btw.
>>
>>524689936
No, it is basically GNU and Linux it was last missing part to make it work well.

Development happens by small steps and improvements. No one has created any thing from zero to hero ... only big Jewish ego claim "I did"

You are the sort of prick I mention here >>524690195

Most computer users are NOT nerds and don't want to spend weeks tweaking with their system.

I am over 60 years old and before you start calling me an incompetent Grandpa, I have been programming and using computers before you were born.

But I repeat, when you start flag waving for your preferred Distro and call any other Distro sub-Parr or Faggy - then that's how I know you are a pillock.
>>
>>524690585
I'm 49 and I use arch. Being 60 is not an excuse, but the fact that you're so uptight and starting a fight with me over this makes me doubt you're really 60.

In any case, yes, I'll continue to tell people which system I think is best even if it makes raging trannies like you seethe. It's always easy lulz with how mad it gets people like you.

I don't see what's so hard to understand about distros, literally use any you want, I'm using Fedora 42 KDE, if you're afraid of breaking anything just get an immutable distro, I wanted to get Mint but it refused to install, Arch is good because the wiki is filled with all sorts of troubleshooting guides, for Fedora half of the problems I had to solve on my own because they were very specific and no forum helped but I still like it overall

I appreciate the distinction.
It's truly rather disappointing, the EU missed the opportunity to give it a boost earlier.
Imagine in the late 90's, some EU initiative for digitalization, an annual budget for developer time for Linux/mainting some state-sponsored distro, should've been doable and WOULD HAVE GONE SUCH A LONG WAY.
(Well, maybe it was such, but it should've been more and more official.)

Now it bites you in ze ass und du stehst etwas duhm da.
China and Russia have head starts, due to Western sanctions (and obvious non-allied relationships).

If we get cut off (not even as Americans being evil, just geopolitcally motivated to burn bridges if they have to cede EU-influence and leave a weaker potential enermy partner/enemy itself), we're presently the most fucked.

Anyhow, hindsight is 2020, eh?
Well, at least a non-insignificant number of people here realize the issue now.

I'm currently running Linux Mint because Windows 10 is no longer supported. I'm on older hardware so I haven't tried too much gaming on Steam but it runs most emulators pretty good.

When I build a new PC I'm going with Windows 11. It's the only OS that is guaranteed to run all the games I want to play. I'll try ArchLinux first to see if I can run Dead by Daylight and Hunt: Showdown but I doubt they'll run.

Running Mint with Cinnamon has been fun but I hate that I have to pull up a command line to do a lot of things. Why can't I make shortcuts? I have to make scripts, set them to executable, and then put them in a system folder so I can run them anywhere with the command line.
