minus-squareThatOneGuy@musicworld.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up3·5 months ago@teft Yeah, I’ve been tempted to take a look at Mint DE. If I ever try another distro on something I will def check that out.
minus-square4grams@awful.systemslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 months agoIt’s great, well worth a try. Stable, functional and compatible, just how I like it.
