Distrohopping. On my ThinkPad T430s I replaced elementary with LMDE 5. On same drive I also have Debian 11 Xfce and Mint 21.1 Cinnamon, and on a separate drive Windows 10. I managed to do the installation without messing up anything else on the machine! I want to explore to get a feeling how LMDE 5 (Mint based on Debian) is compared to Mint 21 (based on Ubuntu9, comparing with both on Cinnamon desktop. #LMDE #LinuxMint #Linux #OpenSource #FOSS #distrohopping
@ASP I will try to! I am, in slow pace migrating from macOS to Mint Cinnamon on another machine. So I intend to eg install same sw on LMDE as one comparison. I wonder if more of Flatpak will be needed (when up to date release is desirable). I will look from my ordinary user perspective, not from an expert perspective. I hope I’ll be back with findings!

This is awesome! Please share your thoughts once you are able to give a verdict.
I am using regular Mint myself but I am really curious if LMDE is a viable alternate.
