A friend of the family has been running Mint as a daily driver for a couple of years. It works pretty well but it does require some Linux expertise.
I definitely would not recommend that to anyone out of the box. More for power users still.
- fogihujy 5y agoOut of curiousity: what made the OOB experience bad for you? I've always found it extremely easy to use.
- BaconPackets 5y agoThere we're enough issues with a couple of things that I felt like I would have required some 1-800-linux-help for most of my family members. - APT randomly breaking and require some CLI magic. - Installing french translation packages was awkward since they we're not part of the official repos. - He unfortunately was running 32bit Mint which is much less fresh when it comes to the repos. Not bad overall, but I wouldn't throw my Windows for 25 years aunt in there!
