You deleted your Steam account and/or broke the discs after installing them?
Anyway, I install every update Mint pushes out and that never happened to me. Maybe try a stable distro.

i finally switched to linux this year and i like it when i look up how to do something in the bootloader and i get a bunch of information that isn't relevant because i'm on systemd and not grub

the nerds at linux should do better

not OP, but I still use grub because I obtained an ungodly amount of knowledge on it due to having to setup a remote kernel swapping and debugging solution during the pandemic for work
