Linux Mint is the best distro for people new to the linux desktop. As said before it makes most of the decisions for you.
The default Cinnamon DE is a good mix between familiar and new, a way to ease you into the ecosystem.
I started out with Cinnamon and eventually went to i3 without a DE at all, but that was after I understood what I wanted.
Hello everyone, I've been looking for a long time to switch from Windows to Linux (on my tower, I have a macbook). The only problem being that I can't decide at all. I've heard a lot of good things about Linux Mint, Manjaro and Arch (especially here for him), I don't know which would be best for me (I'm in my last year of a master's degree in computer systems architecture) because most of the time when I use a Linux it's a simple Debian in CLI.
Also, I have no idea which GUI to choose between KDE Cinamon and other modern not too childish GUIs. Can you help me find arguments to choose the right one?
I also like sometimes playing video games like WoW or Diablo 3 but I guess it will work with Winepak with Flatpak.
Thank you in advance for your help and thank you devRant to exist :).
