Been using mint for 4 years. Very beautiful UI.
Unfortunately eventually I just got tired of not being able to use finger print scanner for singing in and KeePassXC, got tired of how hard it is to manage multiple Python installations (pyenv work awful under Linux and why on earth would I need it). Got tired of Wi-Fi receiving stopping to work If my router is not in broadcasting mode. Got tired of simplistic Linux file permissions. Got tired of pure SMB integration, got tired of missing harddrive encryption. Its really sad to thing of what Linux on desktop can be but still is not.
One thing I like about Linux Mint is that it's mature and doesn't need any dramatic changes. What you get is totally stable and does what you need, and if what it does "out of the box" isn't perfect for you it's easy to change the way it looks or add the programs you need.
Personally, I'd rather have that than changes "because we can" and that make me have to relearn something.
Hello, Dear learn linux tv
When I send an email from Thunderbird to Outlook, unfortunately, the email format gets completely messed up visually. I've made several changes after numerous searches, but unfortunately, my issue remains unresolved. Do you have any thoughts on this matter?
haven't used mint too much, but i once tested an in-place upgrade from (i think) 21 to 21.1 and wasn't impressed that i was forced to create a snapshot first (at least i didn't see a way around it). didn't have enough disk space so had to add and mount a second virtual disk, create the snapshot then was able to continue. otherwise seems to be a nice clean distribution
Grow out the beard a bit more fam you can pull it off
I'm moving to Void Linux, Linux Mint has too many old packages. They stick too long with Ubuntu LTS. Apart from that, I love the distro. I'm using Mint for years and years.
Linux Mint is excellent but KDE Neon is beautiful.
One major negative thing I keep reading about Ubuntu (without Linux Mint) is that it only installs programs as full Snap Packages. Does Mint give the option to NOT use Snap? I don't like the idea that each and every program has to have copies all the repositories bundled in, hogging hard disk space and computer resources.
I got mint running on 4 thinkpads (the oldest from 2014), a handful of Intel Nuc's and on 1 virtual machine at work. All working without hiccups
Like Jay mentioned twice it just stays out of the user's way.
I've used LM for several years now. I love it because it rarely has any issues. And if you do have one it makes you double check your system for problems. It's almost flawless. Sure it has a few hiccups but it's stability wins for me.
Linux Mint is a worthless knock off Ubuntu distros. It's just a Ubuntu with a theme that crashes. The KDE version crashes on shut down, but Kubuntu doesn't crash like the Mint trash and Kubuntu has better support
Mint would sure be a good solution for many of the people who will have to deal with end of support for their current Windows 10 installations that can't be upgraded to Windows 11. I'm afraid a lot of those machines will either become e-waste or be run unpatched.
I have been using Linux Mint as my daily driver and for gaming for multiple years now. All PCs in our household have Linux Mint installed. The once in a full moon when I need something from another distro, I just fire up Distrobox via BoxBuddy and everything works.
I prefer the Debian Edition of Linux Mint. LMDE 6 to be exact. I never like where Ubuntu is heading. I rather stick with Debian based rather than use Ubuntu based distro.
Thank you for your work. I use Mint and Pop OS. I find both very good, but Mint seems to be better for laptop use and Pop OS is better for my gaming desktop.
It's one of my primary drivers
The stability of mint is what makes me, a linux newbie, like it. I know that it pretty much will be what it always has been and I won't get the rug swept out from under me. I know what I'm getting with mint and that is precisely what I want out of my distro. Something dependable that doesn't change every 5 minutes.
this month, I switched from Ubuntu to Mint and I loved it
Hello Jay, and thank you for the video, after seeing this i are a little curious to try it, but are a little unsure as you have not tried it before.
why not make a new beginner's guide to mint, A little in case you come from pop-os and thought to try mint, a little what is different.
was the bash autocomplete not woking been fixed yet?
The installer is really important for me: it offers you quite a lot of choices, with intelligent defaults and useful handholding to set custom values. Specifically, when setting up a dual-boot installation. I can't remember any other installer that makes it so easy to install Linux alongside another OS (mostly Windows, of course) and adjust the size of the two partitions. Other installers I've used have, at best, a single default, and if you want anything different you need to manually set mount points. I know I could look up the way to do this, and get it done right on the second or third attempt; and I know that manual control of this sort of stuff is really important to some users; but it's not important to me, and I'm really grateful for a distro that makes it easy for me. I like Cinnamon, but it's available elsewhere, and I'm happy enough with other desktops (and window managers). And the rest is Linux. But the installer is so unobtrusive it's a star, and I really don't know why other installers can't be like it.
Linux Mint always gets better and faster. Who needs big innovations when it has or offers everything you need on the most stable distro in the Linux environment. I loved Win7. Love Linux Mint even more. 6 years of flawless experience.
What are your impressions of Mint's MATE?
Thank you.
My laptop won't run the Cinnamon version because it's too old. So I tried the XFCE and it works fine.
dude what are the odds I am literally installing this on my first build as we speak and was looking up your installation video haha.
stay awesome, broski, you are doing us a huge service and we appreciate you!!
