Linux Mint is the best starter distro out there

I want to disagree, but I can't. It was the only one I didn't have to fingerfuck to get running on my 2023-era laptop (other than Void). I installed PipeWire to get rid of the shitty PulseAudio crap and everything else has just been smooth sailing since. No effort required. Sleeps correctly, runs well, has that familiar nearly-Debian flavor, and minimal effort to keep running.

If I wanted to spend my waking hours on a running distribution, it would have been Void before they kicked Juan out, and after that? Dunno, because I disagree with Alpine's politics.

Mint is just great when you want Linux, but you don't want to spend time obsessing over USE flags.
