fpbp, based team, frick Ubuntu based distros, they have already prepared to drop Ubuntu is Canonical goes batshit crazy
What an absolutely based team of programmers. We are so back.
What are the benefits of the Debian edition besides stale packages
LMDE has newer packages than regular LM right now, what goes through your mind when you type stupid shit like this?
I guess I just assumed
>Debian
You have no idea what you're talking about, do you? Debian works the same as Ubuntu LTS, packages are frozen to that version and a new one comes out every 2 years. Ubuntu 24.04 has newer packages than Debian 12 and Debian 13 will have newer packages next year.
That's only true of enterprise-grade distros like Rocky. Debian will totally bump your versions between major releases.
That's what I said
Wait you mean Debian 12 is getting version bumps before 13 comes out? Does that happen?
well, sorta. A "stable" branch will get point releases and bug fix releases of packages.
Where it gets fricky is when the security bugfix isn't backported to your major version of a package upstream, then you might get a major version bump on a package
Enterprise distros won't even point release, they backport security patches to the package so you never get even a point release upgrade on a package.
Debian has old packages.
So does Ubuntu LTS, which Mint is based on.
old packages don't matter if they work
debian and mint works
mint comes with everything you need though, debian is a very lazy, incomplete OS at default
nu g thinks that's cool, but the truth is they wouldn't have used debian 3 years ago.
only since debian abandoned their principles and including proprietary wifi drivers in their install media have nu-IQfy been able to install on wifi from their parents basement without having to come upstairs, face Dad and ask to use the ethernet cable (which based Dad would have denied)
Yes... Mint is bloated. but it's better to have too much on your plate than never enough.
a usb live environment of Mint is more valuable than the most finely tuned Debian install ever.
Not even a wintard, but Debian is literally a server OS
Mint is for Personal Computers.
you can't handle an extra ~1500 packages being included that have zero effect on performance if your computer was made after 2005, I don't know what to tell you
at that point, you just have OCD
yes... I have probably 50 programs on my computer that I will never use but I don't give a shit, it makes no difference
>mint comes with everything you need though
I need KDE
I dislike KDE because of options fatigue. literal default Cinnamon is fine, I just want my computers to look like windows 95
I don't spend any time RICING besides choosing a decent wallpaper
although dolphin is the best one on linux i'll give u that
>options fatigue
maybe GNOME is more your speed
all you need to do is open options and change one or two defaults, which distros like mint can change themselves anyway
cinnamon isn't fine out the box, since 21.1 it has the ugliest cursor I have ever seen
>since 21.1 it has the ugliest cursor I have ever seen
dude literally change the cursor in two clicks
i don't even notice but i agree, i use adwaita shit still works
>dude literally change the cursor in two clicks
i have options fatigue lol
also you need to look up a terminal command to actually change the cursor because l o l
Ironically, currently, a lot of repository packages are newer on LMDE.
VLC in native is v3.0.16 on LM, 3.0.20 on LMDE, because Canonical homosexuals want you to install Snaps.
I mean, there is a Flatpak, but you should know why to prefer a native package.
The reason for installing Ubuntu is to have Debian easy to use.
Why even use an uncucked cucked version that probably has residual cuckiness inherent?
Just use LMDE, which what you would want when installing Ubuntu.
>I have no experience with LMDE
Yeah, obviously. How can one expect to throw around such big words?
My last paragraph alone makes it obvious using anything other than LMDE, if it is virtually the same as regular Mint (it is), would be moronic, because you're adding an additional layer into your main OS's pipeline, that you don't actually need.
You *could* argue LMDE is missing features from regular LM, but then please begin to list them.
Oh. Wait.
>I have no experience with LMDE
Right.
I mean, seriously, the pipelines are
>Debian --> Ubuntu --> Mint
vs.
>Debian --> Mint
It's such a no-brainer, it's the inertia of regular Mint and Ubuntu.
The devs also intend it as a fallback, which is ironic, because they have made their own Ubuntu by doing so.
Honestly, just cut Ubuntu out of the equation altogether.
But Mint devs actually listen to their userbase, who haven't caught on.
The latest thing is that Mint is now repackaging Thunderbird, because Ubuntu has shift it to Snaps.
Hats off, das wäre mir ja schon zu blöd an der Stelle.
*I mean, I get it, you'd be forcing 85% of the Mint userbase to reinstall, instead of upgrading to the next version, because you can't switch your Mint base from Ubuntu Mint to LMDE or vice-versa.
The latest post on the Mint blog is quite lengthy, but very interesting, and seems to indicate we're in for a chasm in the GNU/Linux ecosphere, with it running through community- and corporate-driven parts of it.
Exciting times.

Very... "forward" to call that a 'Code of Conduct,' maybe risky.
I'd've picked 'Netiquette,' but I do agree on the whole with its contents.
Very good.
Can't people just develop their own alternative to libadwaiita that supports theming? seems like GTK supports having more than one of these.
I'm still new to app development on Linux (written WIN32 apps before switching), so I can't comment on a technical level.
Even then, I write GUI and everything myself, ideally my apps are just borderless windows/fullscreen and everything is handled by the app (renders using OpenGL).
Things I had in mind, but I've so much things to do at the moment:
- Write a GTK GUI wrapper for 7zz for Linux in Python (since there's no official GUI equivalent like on Windows)
- Write another such a wrapper for an EAC replacement that also just interfaces with the shell to execute terminal Linux rippers, AccuRip checkers, FreeDB, ffmpeg, etc.
The earliest I can imagine having the time to do these are next year, so if anyone else wants these programs, feel free to go ahead and start, I'd join at some point.
The blog post talks about GTK3/4 chasm, affecting apps that are written for GNOME.
I'm not sure how it affects the GTK GUI wrapper from Python.
I've looked into the code for the update manager on Mint. It is written in Python.
Certain apps are being reverted to their older counterparts, because they don't work properly outside of GNOME now, including the archive manager, due to GTK4.
What do?
Maybe hold on until Cosmic shows something good.
>I do agree on the whole with its contents
I'd also append a "Please..." before every point.
As an English native speaker, I feel it just sounds more polite and sets the correct tone 😉
Does LMDE use Cinnamon and can I install gnome if I wanted to?
Yes, and I don't know.
I've heard of others and seen forum post titles that talked about installing MATE or Xfce on LMDE instead of Cinnamon, and the OPs seemed to be happy in the end.
MATE and Xfce are also flavors of Linux Mint, so not sure if it working has anything to do with that.
The reason for installing regular Mint is because it's an uncucked israelitebuntu. Why install LMDE over regular Debian which isn't cucked to start with anyway?
>Why install LMDE
zero reason to install LMDE
install normal Mint
Mint is complete, there is nothing to do after installing unless you want to change web browser or media player or whatever.
I have no experience with LMDE but I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole
what's the point? Regular Mint is the premier distro
The whole point of Mint is "just works" so when the best distro comes out with some experimental alternate version that the best team in linux (only team in linux redpilled on Israel, only team in Linux to make the best DE) spends probably 2 percent of their time looking after
oh, speaking of DE... Linux Mint, the most popular distro, they are the only mainstream distro where the people made the DE
nobody frickin liked Unity (that's why Mint took off)
>they are the only mainstream distro where the people made the DE
PopOS is getting Cosmic soon™
>PopOS
i played with this and hated it, like I said I just want windows DE i don't find the keyboard shortcuts (longcuts honestly) useful. I don't want to have to learn anything new. open program, use program that's what i want out of a de and then i want it to gffo
alsoo, POP OS is a gay sounding name
that matters
aesthetic matters
Linux Mint... that's a better name
Debian Edition exists to make sure they can compile Cinnamons and other packages without relying 100% on Ubuntu, is as arguably easier to rebuild things for other distros when starting from Debian than from Ubuntu. It works as daily driver but is basically Debian with a custom repo that adds some metapackages to it.
Still, they keep it around just in case Ubuntu does something too stupid to fix.
This operating system rocks. Just installed a Windows 95 theme and I simply want to play on my computer all day lol.
Mint was my first distro and it's possibly the greatest distro for any beginner. Honestly even after going on a trip through many different distros, if I ever make a new PC build, I'll just install Mint on it. It just werks and it's comfy.
Mint is a just a getaway drug for windows XP baby ducks and win7 holdouts, sorry to break it to you but GNOME and KDE are the leading desktop environments supported by real distros and leaders of the Linux desktop.
IDK cinnamon just werks, never had any problems with stuttering or performance.
Love the little sounds it makes when resizing windows and minimizing, logging out.
Love how simple it is
Love all the well thought out tools it comes with
Love all its theming.
open your DAMN UPDATE MANAGER YOU IDIOT!!!!
The default cursor is fricking fugly and you need to use a terminal command to properly change it, they can't seem to make it fully just work.
idk I think it looks fine, also I think you can change it in the themes and you can change its size in mousepad
this, I just installed a more normal style mouse and changed it in "themes'
i just said it doesn't fully work, you have to use a terminal command or it comes back when it's over a Qt application
https://www.linuxmint.com/rel_virginia.php
>To modify the pointer theme for root and Qt applications you need to set it system-wide using the update-alternatives command:
Well thats more of a QT problem and not a mint problem brah.
I have an all AMD system really wish they'd bring back KDE but X11 cinnamon just werks so I'll just that until wayland is extra extra polished.
>mint has a shitty graphical option for changing the cursor
>Qt problem
No, that's a DE problem.
This guy thinks a black triangle is "fugly". lol
Yeah, it's too oversized and chunky. It should look more like a conventional arrow like on KDE, Windows and GNOME.

Linux Mint was rendered obsolete in 2010 when Ubuntu added the option to install non-free media codecs from ubiquity.
Why does it still exist in 2024 again?
it's like this anon: instead of only having Ubuntu customer support. Now you have Ubuntu AND Mint customer support. If you can't find it in the Mint forums, then you can find it in the Ubuntu forums.
and with LMDE, if you can't find it in the Debian forums, then you can find it in the Mint forums
Pretty certain mint has been growing in popularity lately because it's more familiar to people coming from windows.
>lately
Anon it's 2024 not 2014.
Linux mint is for white boys, not white men.
what's for white men?
he's gonna say Slackware / Gentoo / Arch. how much do you want to bet?
Have they released the new version yet? Distrobox on the official repos is gamechanger.

Its backdoored, isn't it...

nah, I'll just wait for cosmic
They should port Cinnamon to Cosmic at some point. It's the next logical choice.
No KDE version. I still use mint cinnamon on my laptop though.
If it won't install on Dell desk/laptops it's not for whites and/or men, mint is the only distro I've never been able to install, on supported hardware, no less!
You want JustWorks? Arch and derivatives and put the news feed on your dashboard. NeverBreaks? Debian or Slackware and derivatives, you can't beat the stability without going with openlyBASED.
The White Man hand assembles His own distro from source as it has been done since the dawn of Silicon Circuits, and so it shall be done until the dusk of man kind.
Anything based on an operating system made by and for Black folk is not for any white and even less so for a man.
>Anything based on an operating system made by and for Black folk is not for any white and even less so for a man.
homosexuals can't leave their pol-tarded bullshit in pol
Foken wot m8? The damn OP is poltarded bullshit, besides I haven't gone there for over half a decade. Also, where do you think you are? I'll rephrase for a redditard: any operating system made by and for African descendants is not for a crakka
You guys are probably imagining some White man talking about White men (implying some sense of self-assured superiority), but trust me, you have no idea how common it is to be talking about the White Man outside of White Man areas while being entirely candid about it (Gaijin, Gweilo, Orang Putih).
How do you know I ain't black when I'm calling you a Black person, Black person?
It's really quite funny, because when you've actually seen a bit of the world, those soigays are the most racist, classisist and *exclusive* type of people around.
I mean, being exclusive is their entire raison d'être, when you think about it, they just need something to elevate themselves with. It's kinda sad really.

I have the same issue, I've been a systems administrator and regular user, there's no box I fit into either, I don't associate with any category unless it's topically relevant

what why does IQfy changes Onions int Based? LOL, RedHat glowies are at it again?
I would if they had a KDE version
I've used cinnamon, KDE, cosmic(alpha), gnome, MATE, XFCE.
Cinnamon and KDE are top tier. KDE is still really buggy and has problems with wayland.
For me I look at it this way. Cinnamon X11 on mint is stable, is themed very well, has good GTK apps and they are all themed together and the icon pack, just everything works together its very unified and they are already developing wayland for cinnamon.
KDE is also unifed with krita, kate, kcalc yknow all the QT apps but it's just so damn buggy.
I'll make the switch to QT either when it becomes stable enough that my RX 590 doesn't have graphical glitches.
For example plasma 6 with RX 590 and AMD CPU should work, this hardware has been around forever, yet the sound control panel bugs out and disappears in half, the volume slider lags and overall the desktop just feels slow.
Plasma 5.27 works well and is snappy, but guess what no desktop uses it besides debian or some old non supported distro.
Debian has its own problems OTB like mpv static when seeking, bad pulseaudio drivers and the drivers are very very old.
So no distro has a good KDE version, mint is the only one I'll use. I'd like to use KDE/QT/Wayland for the future it's simply too buggy at the moment.
I tried plasma 6 on my Thinkpad it works fine though.
Mint just werks. The sounds, the theming, the performance, the DE, everything is just so well thought out.
I loved Plasma 6 on openSUSE but there are just way too many package updates to make it worth dailying at this point.
default openSUSE leap uses 5.27 and I never have any issues at all with my RX 6600
Sorry folks, wrong pic.
Distrotism is why there will never ever be a "year of the linux desktop"
is it ok if i have Windows and just run Linux from flash drive? Gonna save some data to cloud
How do I run exe file on mint
use Wine it's installed by default
i love mint but no kde is a deal breaker, cinnamon is ehh and xfce always gives me screen tearing, kde justwerks on my system
if arch and kde is so unstable then why does steamos use them huh?
Valve has paid white engineers working every day to ensure a smooth operation in their high-selling product
Most people don't have that luxury for their personal computer
>doesn't support wayland
No.
Why choose LMDE over Debian?
I use Fedora btw - not the hat, the operating system.
Most of LMDE is bundled in a metapackage that you can add to actual Debian yourself, with some fiddling, you also get more up to date versions of Cinnamon. It is more useful for Linux Mint devs as a test ground for Cinnamon packaging outside Ubuntu than for end users. It's their way to make sure Cinnamon isn't impossible to build outside Ubuntu.
i'll stick with debian
>inb4 troony
idc it's still the best distro
Debian is nice to game on
I'm brown doe
I'm brown 'lbeit
linux mint bricked my laptop
I just installed the xfce edition yesterday but this thread is making me rethink my decision.
I'm a proud race traitor, white power can suck my dick mashallah
so the verdict is LMDE is a better choice than Linux Mint?
Average white man has higher IQ than target audience and user-base of this product.
If I play only single-player games on Steam can I just install Linux Mint and not worry about them running properly?
yawn. call me when Mint has a KDE variant
>drag window
>it lags behind the cursor and have to wait for it to catch up
>watch YouTube video
>it hitches and stutters (just works on Windows)
Instantly uninstalled.
I have been using Mint for like 20 years...
Be very careful of instability in new versions but if you stay a year back it is rock solid and just works...
