To be fair they completely restarted development a while ago because they said they weren’t happy with how it turned out. They didn’t expect it to take this long.
Mostly aesthetically, but also since Linux Mint is a very stable distro updates are usually slow and the packages it uses are often a little outdated. If you’re the type of person to want to update to the newest thing as soon as it’s out, then it’s probably not for you.
Manjaro and Ubuntu have never really had perfect out of the box experiences imo, and as usual the Linux community loved to recommend bad starter distros. Even Fedora has some eyebrow-raising stuff like forcing you to manually install Nvidia drivers through the command line.
If you want something that “just works” I’d highly recommend ZorinOS or PopOS. They’ve got good defaults. Linux Mint is also good, but it does feel a little outdated.
I never really liked Twitter as a concept. It feels like it’s built on an “old man yells at cloud” concept where people just shout their thoughts and nobody gains anything from it.
By comparison forums are there to foster discussions and communities. I thought Mastodon would be better but I spent 5 minutes and it’s exactly the same nonsense.
I love how most major US companies commit crimes against humanity and that’s considered very normal and business as usual but whenever Saudi Arabia diversifies its funds it’s suddenly the most horrifying inhumane maniacal evil thing imaginable and we get 500 articles reiterating that. They spent money on football? They’re sportswashing us! It’s all a conspiracy!!!
Meanwhile many US companies run on child slavery, others like Nestle extort precious materials from Africa and intentionally de-stabalize countries there, many western countries such as US support genocide in Israel and so on. But that’s just business as usual, can we PLEASE focus on Saudi Arabia’s spending on sports?!?!?
