@norrist Congratulations! I'm on T460P and LMDE, I am also very satisfied with my choice. I've never installed anything else than Debian-based (incl Ubuntu-based) during the few years I've explored Linux & Co. What I hear is that Archbased are more difficult, needs more knowledge to use and maintain incl applications, than eg LMDE – but no experience myself. Good to hear your Linux distro works well for you!
