      I switched to Linux Mint (Cinamon) two weeks ago and I’m surprised how easy it was, and now wonder why I didn’t do it earlier. So far I have been super satisfied!

        Linux Mint Cinnamon is awesome. I’m a developer for embedded linux systems and I run the current version of Mint on all my machines, even at work. Having a user friendly experience out of the box doesn’t make it not Linux/FOSS.

        And if the ease of installation surprised you, just wait until you see what system updates are like compared with windows!

        I updated two of my systems to Linux Mint 22.2 yesterday and the entire install process runs in the background in about 90 seconds without disrupting what you’re doing (I was in a meeting while I let it install). Then you reboot whenever convenient and that’s less than another minute.
