I used to be an avid Linux Mint user and would constantly promote it to friends and colleagues, but no longer. I still really like Mint and Ubuntu in general and is far better than the Windows spyware/unstoppable forced updates nightmare, but it makes an impractical daily OS for me and I have switched to macOS. The primary reason is for music/audio production for which I have invested a significant amount of money and time for Logic and the entire Universal Audio ecosystem using Luna as the DAW. I am well-aware of the Linux alternatives, but I am unwilling to make a switch right now and there simply is no equivalent to Luna on any OS or platform. Another issue I had with Linux desktop distros is with software compatibility and inconsistency of available binaries among the them. I got really sick of trying to build libraries from source just install simple apps or libs. I do enough of that in my day job. I am not hating in Linux though. There a great many advantages and for simple use cases it’s more than adequate. I even had my teenage daughter use Mint for a while until I broke down and had to get her a Macbook when she started university (there were some specific system requirements that their software had, and it wasn’t compatible with *nix).
