Why Linux Mint feels like a teenager who doesn't want to grow up and be a real man?
Over the years Linux mint is what it is and i can assure you will be in the upcoming hundred years, it's so boring by default, it is based on Ubuntu, if that's the case why the devs are re-inventing something worse than ubuntu, people will argue, it comes with customization, okay, do you call few extensions a gateway to customization? I installed it in a VM and customized it to what i almost wished for however, it still feels like a child who spoiled his room over and over, is that the best thing the devs can make? I try my best to love it but from the inside there is no love, it's like your girlfrienr who you pretend to love but you are disguised....

Guys why you are using such distro?

    I'm fixing an old dell laptop that the HD crashed and thought I'd play around with linux (on a new HD, of course), is Ubuntu a good choice? Others? Lots of distros out there with everyone saying "The one I use is the best!!!"

    @tosensei are you using Linux mint? What would be the performance if you go down with Gnome instead of cinnamon

    @tosensei if linux mint is based on Ubuntu then why not Ubuntu instead of mint? It's like if you opt for an expensive car that has an engine found in a cheap car, isn't that logical?

    "Its so boring by default"
    And what do you expect? Its a tool and the main question is, if it does its job.
    Are you expecting amusement also from other tools? Spending evenings by lauging at a toolbox?

    @qwwerty hahah no i meant the gui or the desktop environment looks outdated, so what i did is i installed gnome and i customized it and it looks now more modern and elegant
