Linux Mint should be Jow Forums distro and not meme distributions like Gentoo or Arch

If you're concerned about "bloat" you'd be running CentOS headless.
You pleeb sack of shit!

Doesn't have any street cred though. You don't want to cool kids to laugh about you in fetch threads, do you?

ah the good ol linux mentality
>I"d like x
>why do you want x? you don't need that, but if you insist then learn to code and implement it yourself

I know that many of you will shit on Manjaro but won't it be a better solution to the shit op mentioned than mint?

i donno, i never could get used to it. Xfce is my fav. KDE and Gnome are terrible though, they make even the nicest newest computer run slow

here is the windows experience

it's not just windows, it's anything microsoft touches. Skype is a pile of shit since microsoft took it over. and christ, when i still use MS word for work on my macbook pro, i am very careful to save shit every 2 minutes because even on macOS, Word manages to crash itself

install gentoo

mint is the buggiest distro tho

>implying minimal distros aren't functional
Thank god we don't have retards like you in the community.

>install linux mint

No thanks

Its a good distro, ive used it as my first and it worked fine. Cinnamon was slow of course, but again, nothing wrong with mint

This

After working for 8-10 hours a day on other people's computers and driving my hour commute home, the last fucking thing I want is to fuck with my own.

Why use Mint instead of Ubuntu LTS? Not memeing, genuinely curious

based and redpilled

Unlike you memesters, I have actually installed and used Mint. It's not very stable.

but i used mint for a year, and ubuntu for a year... and both are less stable than arch...

unironically kys.

you smell of poo

Sorry, but they are not true Unix. Anyway FreeBSD is more like a reddit or tumblr OS.

That scenario hasn't been a problem since at least W7. Even less so with OneDrive.
I've been trying to use Linux for school, but every other class ends up on my Windows machine because it's much more stable, even if bloated.

>tiling WMs are better for work
t. never done any "work" beyond configuring some gay ebin minimalist weeb ricer theme

>Pushing the systemdick into your machine
That's hella gay

If only Cinnamon was less resource intensive OP
Now that is just retarded user. As if there is that big a difference. Get real.
Sorry but BSD is going to be gone within the decade. And that is being generous. It's a miracle that it sticks around still.
>muh bloat
Too many people here exaggerate when they use this word. We should sentence you lot too a year of W10 and MacOS.

Tell us more about what you do with computers, user.

>linux mint
That's a funny way to spell opensuse.

>Power on Linux -> crash
Linux is shit
>Power on Windows -> PC dies

Things that haven't happened since 1998 for $5 Alex

Both crash, but saying windows breaks systems and Linux doesn't is so naive I hope your comment is bait.

Additionally Word's auto save feature saves often enough that if your system does crash you will lose maybe a sentence or two. The only way to change that is to deliberately turn the feature off, in which case you deserve to loose your file.

>perfect de for real work not neeting home
>Jow Forums distro
You seem to be missing the point completely

W7 was okay, W10 is thrash. I can't sit around in my classes waiting for it to finish updating.

>Additionally Word's auto save feature saves often enough that if your system does crash you will lose maybe a sentence or two.

Semi-related...
>over 15 years ago
>OpenOffice has autosave function

>about slightly over a decade ago
>OpenOffice switches to Open Document format
>removes autosave feature
??????

Somebody explain this bullshit.

>he doesn't instinctively do ctrl+s every 30 seconds

I've been using W10 for years and never had an update during class. But I actually keep mine up to date rather than waiting six months after a security update for it to force restart my system.
W7 is subjectively better, but W10 is the standard and generally works just fine. HyperV is nice to use for Windows VM as well, and runs very well.

This.

I do.
My dad never did and still doesn't, despite me trying to hammer this into his fucking skull for two fucking decades...

Nicer experience out of the box IMO, they offer a more "whole" experience and the software updater is nicer too. Also, no telemetry by default.

stable and does everything i want. good bistro
