Having used Mint on my laptop for the last few months, I can say I have had to do far less technical meddling with the OS to get it to work correctly than I did with Windows 11. I have also been able to totally resolve all issues encountered (1 issue) which I didn’t have the time or expertise to do with my Windows OS. It’s refreshing not having to work with a system that feels like a broken mess I’m too incompetent to fix.
