New To Mint!

Post by TheDewOnTheMint »

Hello! I am New to Linux Mint and New to Linux in general! (Well, Kinda; I ran Ubuntu for the last week) I tried Ubuntu and wasn't pleased by how locked down it was and that it didn't install the necessary software to do things, but Mint has fixed that! I'm loving Mint MUCH MORE!! It feels so much more modern than Ubuntu and I can see why this distribution is one of the most popular!
