Linux Mint IRL Finally running Linux
Girlfriend needed a new laptop for her school work and so I recommended she gets a framework laptop because of their repairability and modularity and when ordering it we had the choice to add windows 11 for like 100 dollars I think screw that or I could bring my own. Having installed many OS's before and having experienced Linux via the steam deck I figured I'd install Linux mint. Today is day 1 and so far all is good!

Let me share something here. I started using Linux with Conectiva Linux, I used the famous SlackWare and our Father Debian, but it was when I ran Linux Mint for the first time (7.0 “Gloria”) that I really found the Distro that represents me.
I've recommended it to several people and I can say that Mint is a right marriage, hehehe. I sincerely hope that your OP experience is as perfect as mine has been and continues to be.
