Why Linux Mint is My Daily Driver for Home, Work, and Everything in Between

I've keep using Linux Mint on the laptops I use every day, because its focus on ease of use, stability, and that it can be set to look and feel as each user wants to set it up. Which means instead of getting in the users way, each user can actually focus on doing what they want to do on their computer.

Either you use it for work, or play, Linux Mint has proven to be a solid choice for beginner and advanced user that want to set their computer once, and forget about it. And while there are other Linux distros with a focus on packaging the most bleeding edge software, or more advanced users, I've found that Linux Mint is the right balances of being stable and user friendly, with adding new tech and software only when is ready.

That is why I see Linux Mint as one of the best options for home users, and professionals, that need an OS that is stable, easy to use, and modern. These three things are vital for end users, since it allows them to either use new computers, or give longer use to older ones, according to their needs.

With time, more apps are coming to Linux in general, and Linux Mint benefits from this being based on Ubuntu, with a Debian based option available. Ubuntu, and Debian, are two of the most popular Linux distros, which means that developers taken them into account when bringing their apps to Linux. It is also important, that Linux Mint is also on the top ten most popular distros, making it also important to consider.

It also means that what works for Ubuntu, or Debian, also works for Linux Mint in most cases. Which makes the resources pool even bigger in terms of software, and support, the user gets when needed. Also that Linux Mint supports Flatpak, a software deployment and package management utility for Linux, out of the box is an advantage since is becoming a popular way with app developers to publish their apps on Linux. Mainly because the more people develop, and use, Flatpak apps, more Linux distros will use them to serve software to their users.

Linux Mint is a solid base for the computer needs of home users, professional users, and small businesses that need a stable and easy to use OS that work for, and with, them. This is why is the Linux distro I recommend, and want to help people to learn how to use to the best of their abilities to do their best work, and live their best digital life.
