        How would it compare to Mint for a beginner user doing mostly web based work and gaming?

          I was mostly joking as I’ve never used that distro. I’ve used Linux Mint and it’s pretty much suited for everything you’d need.

          Try it. You’re asking for something subjective and dependent on hardware and use case.

          For example I had a ton of trouble with mint. I tried Ubuntu and it was okay. I then tried popos and have been running it for over 3 years now and I’ve had maybe one large hiccup but nothing but a stable system.

              You’re welcome, have fun :). You can also setup virtual machines to see if you like the look and feel before actually installing it on your system.

              This way you’ll be able to try a handful of distros at a time, just a bit of a speed run so you can get to the one you want faster.
