    Another small nitpick

    Linux mint is great for beginners, but that issue you had might be related to your hardware.

    So maybe instead of telling people to outright avoid it, maybe just put a warning.

    Also, linux people these days don’t like ubuntu for desktop because of shoving snaps to users face.

    Because for me The simplicity and similarity of cinnamon was a great push into linux sphere when I was beginner

      Mint does not have Wayland support, and has no plans to have it on their roadmap either. Best to just use Ubuntu.

      The newbie coming over from Windows does not care about Snaps and other cult opinions. Anti-Snap religious opinions are mostly within the Linux community among users that have gathered few years of Linux experience and are likely aged 12-27 clamouring for their lives to revolve around Linux community. I gave no shit about this brainless cultism, and minimally interacted to be able to steer the ship myself instead of being spoonfed. I used Ubuntu for 6 years before making the jump to Debian 12 at the start of this month.
