Just installed Mint to try it out because it looks similar to Windows. Don't judge me.
Oh I’ve judged you! And I find you guilty of making an acceptable decision that suites your preferences.
I'll get the pool noodles!
i wonder how good noodles would be if they were made in a pool
The sentence, however, is still death.

I installed Mint for the sake of trying it and I quite liked Cinnamon, but after that I did some distro and desktop hopping, I will not go back until it has proper Wayland support.
It has proper Wayland support.
Cinnamon? If you've seen the news that it's getting Wayland support, it doesn't mean it has now or anywhere in the near future.
I've been using Linux in different capacities since the late 90s. I use Mint with Cinnamon because it's stable, does all I need and I don't need to fuss with it. You're more than fine.
Installed it on a thin client instead of win10 iot for the same reason, basic functionality all there, being used as a media streaming browser machine, no regrets.
Had previous experience with fedora and others many years prior, definitely can tell how far it all progressed since
