Cinnamon is like a clunky KDE Plasma, why use Cinnamon when KDE Plasma exists?

Nice one, m8.

In all seriousness, you could run Devuan. I'm currently on Arch and debating a switch to Void. I'm just too lazy to make it happen. Maybe next weekend.

Do it, I did the same thing a while back and don't regret it at all

Only issue is the relative lack of documentation, but usually you can figure any problems you have out

I recommend it to my tech illiterate friend because it looks like Windows and it already has the media codecs and normie shit.
I use debian myself

Delet this.
Cinnamon a cute.

No strong opinion on Mint as a distro, although I respect that they're trying to go for stability despite their small team by basing themselves off each LTS for two years (and rolling updates in from the point release). Probably was a mad scramble trying to keep up with releases as fast as Canonical can shit them out.

So yeah, I can take Linux Mint or leave it, but Cinnamon is comfy as fuck.
>>
>>56878512
Mint is fine for what it does. Tho these distros are much better at succeeding at building a no hassle distro

Mint remember, has horrible, terrible, massive gaping hole security like when that one guy replaced every .ISO with his own backdoored image and infected thousands of installs. Mint's coverup of this and denials were absolutely haram too. They still have no idea what they are doing and should be avoided. Just read their message lists from that time, nobody had any clue.

While I agree the team's response was sub-par, I would call it cluelessness, coverup is going a bit too far. Plus there were differences between the security distro's repositories and whatever CRM setup they had for their site/forum. Again, I agree with you, just want to add some nuance to your characterization of that particular incident.

Debian uses systemd and is what Ubuntu is based on.

You aren't avoiding Mint, you're just moving further up the river that Mint came from.

This is a false statement.
>>
>>56882114
I agree. Cinnamon is only a little better than GNOME 3.
Definitely better, though.
>>
>>56882130
That's a matter of opinion. I for one don't like using window buttons and love the activities-oriented window management of GNOME. Some don't, I understand that, but these aren't things to be graded objectively.

Actually i failed disabling pulseaudio in LM. It would left me with no sound.

>Having Linux being easy to use and accessible to non-techy people is somehow inherently bad

Is there some actual problem with the way Mint is simplifying things or is this just a form of "I don't want it to be easy for other people" gatekeeping?
