Just installed my second Mint machine for desktop work yesterday. Really cannot complain. The difference in desktop responsiveness between this 7 year old Mint machine versus a brand new PC or Mac is night and day. Every modern OS needs a major GUI refactoring, I swear. It takes a full minute for my Mac to open control panels. Mint can do it in microseconds... Silly that this is the case.
