Re: Linux Mint VS Ubuntu VS Debian
If we assume that most people will be using the OS that they consider to be 'better' and we then make note that we are in the Mint forums, which consists of mostly Mint users... Could we simply assume that a majority of forum members are likely to say Mint

You are free to wonder, of course, and to decide for yourself. Yet, in fact there is no reasonable and no logical answer to this question, which will be accepted by all.Tol wrote:I am wondering which Linux OS is better : Linux Mint, Ubuntu, or Debian.
Moreover, Ubuntu is based on Debian, and the main edition of Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu. So who are we to blame our own roots?
In fact for me Ubuntu and Linux Mint work equally well. It is only the Linux Mint user interfaces, Cinnamon and xfce in my case, which I personally like better than the Ubuntu user interface Unity. But this is my personal taste, not a question of bad, good or better.

Clem and his clan produce a refinement over Ubuntu, which is more fluid to use and more stable, less bleeding edges. Therefore, the better option for those wanting to use a pc and not make fetish love to it.karlchen wrote:You are free to wonder, of course, and to decide for yourself.

Re: Linux Mint VS Ubuntu VS Debian
@Tol, It's rather a personal choice. There is not a 'better' option for everyone. I used to be an Ubuntu fanboy, but time changed after the release of 12.04, which became too complicated and a bit of bloated. And now Mint is my favorite Linux distro.

Re: Linux Mint VS Ubuntu VS Debian
It depends on what forum you ask the question.Tol wrote:I am wondering which Linux OS is better : Linux Mint, Ubuntu, or Debian.
In this forum it's Mint.
In Ubuntu's forum it's Ubuntu.
In the debian forum you won't get an answer. Instead you will be called an idiot for asking a question that has an obvious answer.
Please add a [SOLVED] at the end of your original subject header if your question has been answered and solved.
