A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

The benefit using Linux Mint (at least what I have seen) is that multimedia codecs are optional on install, which is totally fine in my opinion.
Mint is a fine distro. My comment was more like a "what if" scenario.
