>>250158I don't think you read the post correctly king
Anyways he's white and unironically a bit of a mouthbreather in the literal sense. He kind of put me off when we were complaining about the tech market and his biggest problem with binbows was that their CEO is from Pakistan so he thinks all of the money they make must be going there or however the Fox is Newsed but aside from that he seemed cool to me
>>250159He did kind of have shill energy because I was like "no you don't need to upgrade it I'll keep it on windows 10 if possible thanks" and he was like "no you should REALLY upgrade because windows 10 isn't supported anymore so it's a matter of time until dem H@XX0RZ getcha" and I was like "I'll think about it"

I've never used mint. I've only used Ubuntu, Trisquel, Parabola GNU/Linux-libre, and GNU Guix.
Over all it depends on what you need. I just finished college a couple days ago and I did most of it on a Linux system (I took computer science), but there were some things I had to do on an old windows machine since sometimes my teachers required us to use proprietary windows only software. I mostly use my computers for programming, doing classwork, and using the internet so if you have different needs, then you might need windows 11. I've never tried any windows emulation (Like WINE).
If you are going to use Linux, you should realize that you might need to learn some new applications, and that it dosen't have everything that windows has. You also have to learn how to use the command line, since lots of configuration is done by command line. Try using package managers to install software whenever you can. Linux is more like android, where it's normal to get most of your software from a package manager instead of going onto the internet (just like on android), downloading it from a website, and running .exe file to install.
I like not having tons of shit thrown in my face. What I mean is that windows will promote their own products whenever you use it (like edge is 20% faster than chrome whenever you open up chrome). Ubuntu does it a little bit at the start but after that it stops, most other distros don't do it at all.
I reccomend using Ubuntu as a starter. Mint would also probably work allthough I've never tried it so I can't give a full reccomendation. If you choose a point release distro, you might want to put a package manager that you can get newer software from, since the default repo ends up having lots of old software in it near the distros end of life. I'd reccomend installing a cross platform package manager like nix or guix to get the newer software if you need it (I mainly use it for yt-dlp). You could also try using flatpak or app images for the newer software but I haven't used those much.

>>250184The only 2 programs i use are not on Linux and its the only thing stopping me from switching.
No i will not fuck with wine or any console commands. The over paid tech monkeys who codeslop should make themselves actually useful to society instead of ruining it should be able to program a functional OS without cryptoglyphic magic
