    Thats a reason against mint not Linux XD had it too, just use a modified GNOME or KDE desktop and you are fine and actually have wayland support

      Fair point, Mint doesn’t represent Linux as a whole. I finally settled on Mint cause I didn’t like the look of stock GNOME and… I forget why I decided against using Mint’s KDE. Choose Cinnamon cause I was tired after distro hopping a bunch and didn’t want to tinker anymore.

      I’m sure you can customize GNOME to look like KDE/Cinnamon, but if it just breaks in the next update or two I’d rather not go through the trouble.

      I think I read somewhere that Mint is getting wayland support soon though? It’ll be nice if that fixes the crashing bug.

        I think with KDE 6 there is hope. But I am currently having memory safety issues with Dolphin, the rest is working fine though, but anyaways doesnt feel nice.

        And KDE is usable… Dolphin is such great software, although probably pretty bloated and somehow crashy

          Oof, memory issues are the worst. I haven’t tried Dolphin myself so I can’t offer much help there, but good luck finding a solution! I should give it a try sometime
