What's wrong with it?
nothing in particular, I was just taken by surprise that a Roblox meme was in my feed lol
Trying to get Roblox running inside of mint is a pita
Weird to use a game that decided to drop its official Linux support for this meme
At least Sober's working.
Not only that but they also detect VMs so if you want to play it you have to dual boot

Using roblox to talk about linux
It once played perfectly fine under WINE, then Roblox explicitly blocked it for no good reason.

I'm a Linux noob so I put Mint on my PC. I like it a lot, very smooth and clean looking.
i have been using mint (cinnamon) too for like a year and a half. every now and then i try another distro and a few more, but i always land back where i started. it even looks pretty with the "sweet dark v40" gtk theme.
I love this absolute fantasy Linux folk have come up with
I do some e-wasting for a number of big companies and have piles of old laptops. I've taken to giving the laptops to people that need computers and the ones with Linux don't taken. I literally can't give away Linux computers. They can buy their own windows licenses.

Oh is this an excuse to hop on the Mint praise train? Don’t mind if I do!
For me it was smoother than windows to install, it runs much better moment to moment (it’s like the people that made it were worried about making nice software rather than the business goals being pushed by their managers), and most importantly the fact that it is the “beginner” distro doesn’t compromise its capabilities. I am in the terminal all day every day and I use the machine to work on software for embedded Linux systems.
Mint was so easy to install. I'm pretty new to Linux. Not afraid of having to do things in the terminal, but I don't really know many commands yet. So, I appreciate the graphical managers for updates and drivers. You can definitely tell they really worked to make a polished OS. And I really like Cinnamon. It's a very clean looking DE that has been super easy to transition to from Windows.
Unlike Kubuntu, I didn't have to do any tricks or install anything from github to get stuff from my Steam library to work, everything just worked. And Kubuntu (or perhaps just Wayland) would crash upon waking my PC from sleep and wouldn't recover.
- Plasma is more similar to Windows
- Plasma is more customizable
- Plasma is just as beginner-friendly
- Plasma has more features
- Plasma is more actively developed
- Plasma looks better
Don't get me wrong, Cinnamon is fine, but it gets recommended religiously to beginners for some reason. It just doesn't make sense, so I will keep repeating this, not least to keep alive the ancient linux tradition of Desktop wars.
Still, any Windows to Linux transition is a step forward and I support this, upvoted.

I will likely go back to mint once Windows 10 is done. 11 is pure trash.
The major hang up I have is gaming. I have an Nvidia card and it's never behaved well with Linux. I also like GTAO but I will no longer be able to play it. Most of my other titles work fine.
I don't know what I'm going to do yet.
I switched to Linux Mint several months ago. Thanks to Proton, All my Steam games that I bought for Windows run great. (I'm using an nVidia RTX 3060). And any older games like "Deus Ex" or "Giants: Citizen Kabuto" run under Wine, using the default settings.

Like if people actually cared that a Windows version goes EoL. That literally means nothing to most people and typical PC user won’t even notice anything until something will functionally break, which will take YEARS after it's EoL.

The Steam Deck and it's desktop mode are why I decided to try jumping head first into a single boot of Bazzite on my main computer, it's basically like using a Steam deck, just across four monitors, a year in and I haven't looked back.

Microsoft added a CoPilot icon to my Windows 10 Taskbar yesterday. It looks to me like they're not going to take "no" for an answer.
They also added a "it's time to upgrade to Windows 11" full screen message on my login screen (with the option to decline in tiny text).

I've installed mint on my laptop, I like it so far. Everything was super easy to get set up, even the graphics drivers

Remember when Windows XP reached EoL the first time in 2009 and people abandoned it? Yeah, me neither, but I remember Microsoft groaning and extending some support for a few more years, until the final EoL in 2014. I expect the same to happen to 10.

I'm experimenting with Pop!_OS on my aging laptop running it on a USB drive. Was happy to see it supports 2-in-1 functionality.

The average user cares less about their OS being EoL, than that they have to learn a whole new OS that works "completely" different to what they are used to.

Does anyone else find these OS wars silly? To me an OS is a tool and you should be using whatever tool is best suited for the job. For me I'm regularly switching between all 3 major OS's.
I've got windows systems, Linux systems and MacOS all under regular use at home
Well, most people don't have spare computers at home, so they do actually need to decide. It also means that they can't easily try out different operating systems, so even when they're unhappy with their current OS, they'll rarely inform themselves about alternatives.

I started on mint a couple months ago and so far I've tried as many distros as I could find. I liked manjaro but then found out about their controversies so I'm currently on endeavour os. Half of the fun for me has been experimenting with different desktops and whatnot, which has gotten me back into computer stuff.

Damn. My 10 year old HP all in one is gonna be bricked? Damn shame
Fuck it man, I'll take it, you can still spin that up with Linux and run a bunch of microservices on it. Not a great form factor for a server, but guess what, if these China tariffs take off, you're gonna be so glad you have a 10 year old machine to have around for extra compute power, since buying new compute will be obscenely costly. (Assuming you're in the USA of course, if you're in Europe you'll be fine)
