I can recommend a minty flavored alternative if you’re sick of it.
Green Ubuntu is Best Ubuntu
You mean Ubuntu MATE?
No, I do not
A fresh breath of minty cinnamon, mate?
I prefer some POP in my ubuntu, but green is flavorful.
I like it across the road a bit more, you know, the fedora shop
I’m using Mint and new to it. Does the Mint app store have more security or scrutiny? I’m cautious as most things are lucky to have one or two reviews listen. Many are zero though and it’s not quite clear to me yet how to tell if things are from an official source or if they had review.
Packages are usually not official but maintained by your distro, so there are pretty strict controls, especially on Linux Mint Debian edition. Flatpaks on the other hand come from flathub and are less controlled, but since they’re sandboxed the security is still good. If you open the website you can see which apps are verified (official) and which aren’t. Flatpaks also have more user reviews in the most cases
I recommend Debian. Why go downstream when you can go upstream?
