    Nice! The outdated kernel was one of the main reasons why I never recommended using Mint. Now, if they can do something about their other outdated packages like Mesa - and switch to Wayland - I’d be happy to recommend Mint.

      I’ll start using Mint… heck, any version of Linux… as soon as they introduce a proper UI for a plethora of system settings. If I ever have to use a command line for anything but THE most esoteric, potentially system-damaging scenarios, the O/s has failed in my book. (Windows user since 3.1, never lasted more than a day with Linux)

        Windows settings are notoriously confusing, and absolute majority of things can currently be resolved in various Linux environments via GUI.

        I honestly don’t remember when I last opened the terminal. Using Manjaro KDE on my main machine right now.
