Mint is definitely not overrated. It has done much for the community because they created a distro that is easy to understand if you switch to Linux, easy to maintain and mostly works out of the box. Also they don't use snap.
Agreed. I just have better things to do than muck about with my OS. Just slap Mint on that fucker and get on with your life. Now, of course I i know that many people like to tinker and have everything just so. I'm not in any way knocking that. But if you just want minimal hassle Mint is the shit.
Noob mint user here; first distro, I really like it. What's up with the snap contention that I keep seeing?
Snap is container Software. It's a program that runs software in an isolated area. Snaps is made by canonical, the company behind Ubuntu. And it's really hatred because, IIRC, it's very slow and not completely open source
