    Mint? Based on Ubuntu 22.04? Seems a hint dated.

    No offense, I swear. But I have a buddy who has to support Mint installs for work and it honestly sounds horrible.

    Then again, the ease of use is probably worth the time saved setting up Arch.

    Edit: It is Pop!_OS that is based on Ubuntu 22.04 not Mint. Ubuntu spinoffs spun me through a loop.

      There are many stops between mint and arch. I’d personally point a new user towards fedora or maybe another Debian distro

        Honestly, I’m with you on that one. Debian is reliable, so it send like the safest option. Personally, I use it for my seed box, and I’ve helped others set their own up to. Fedora, on the other hand, introduces package updates a little more frequently and in the long run, I think it’s more enjoyable to work on in a desktop environment.
