I managed to get the right deal and now have a new laptop. I have more or less been exclusively using Ubuntu for the past 12 years or so, but the whole Snap updating system really annoys me. I am considering a change on my new computer. Years ago, I used Linux Mint (I still use Cinnamon on Ubuntu), but I was wondering how it is now? I remember switching to Ubuntu because of stability problems, but I assume this would be fixed. Anyone have recent experiences with Mint, or have other distro recommendations? I definitely want to move away from Snap.
