I’ve been using Linux Mint since forever. I’ve never felt a reason to change. But I’m interested in what persuaded others to move.

    Anything arch, basically. Maybe I’m just a too lower tier power user, but I have always returned to Mint. Rock solid daily driver working out of the box. I don’t really want to have to tinker with the os, I admit. It should just work.

      Fully agree. I once wanted to try it. I took a look at the documentation for partitioning and realized that I needed 2 full days for a working installation and constant access to another PC to be able to read the documentation… No thanks, I don’t care about the hate, Debian/Ubuntu is up and running in 30 mins and gets out of the way…

      My personal PC and work PC are windows. I also just accidently removed a lot of my game files, so I figure it’s about time to start over. I’m going for kubuntu this time. I figure it’s going to be easier to get set up and running quickly without much fuss.

      That said, I also run endeavor os on a little netbook tablet I have, so I’m dipping a toe there as well.
