I don't know about OP but when I use a VPN, it's on all the time, not selectively enabled because I'm going to a particular website.
The first couple commands I run after install:
$ sudo apt install vim
$ sudo apt autopurge libreoffice*
When I, rarely, need more advanced features like window splitting and session management I also use Zellij
Konsole does window splitting as well, doesn't it?
How's the A770 treating you in general?
I was sick of paying the "Australia tax" for new releases that took longer to reach us than most of the rest of the world.
Exactly this, except I actually stopped for a long time when Netflix first came out and wasn't geo-restricted.. then the enshittification started.
X11 because Discord is unusable for me on Wayland, and I use it every day.
Edit: I recently switched to a 7800 XT (was using a 3080), and the discord problem was either solved since the last time I tried it, or not being on nvidia helps - no more weird input lag etc. in discord, so I've moved over to Wayland finally.
I'm not suggesting it's bad, I just don't use it much and it's always preinstalled.
Zram is really neat.
It is still shit, and every battlefield game is full of unchecked wall / ESP hackers, with the occasional aimbot for additional spice.
When I need an office suite, Libreoffice is the one I use, but it's so infrequent that I reinstall writer or whatever part I need at the time and then uninstall again.
The main reason it bothers me is I will see it being updated frequently (and they're not small updates) - and I've probably never ran the thing since the last OS install most of the time.
I really like the Mint Y icons, they're kinda round with soft colours.
btop is awesome. RIP htop
Not sure why noone has pointed this out but if you use paru or yay instead of pacman, installing/searching the AUR is the same as if they are in the main repo. It does all the building etc for you.
To be specific..
Install something from the main repo:
$ paru -S package
Install something from the AUR:
$ paru -S package
To search for a package, in the main repo or the AUR:
$ paru -Ss search-term
With the search results, it clearly labels if something is from the AUR or extras or the main repo, and you can make it show AUR results first or last in the config.

I don't actually use pacman directly at all, I use paru for everything and it's seamless.
For real this is The One for new users. It just works.
I just don't wipe out /home when I reinstall. Same /home partition, different distro on /
Mint 💯
I am looking forward to Wayland being a problem free experience. Well, rather, I don't care if it's X11 or Wayland, I don't want have to think about the underlying system.
